Time Machine issues

I have been getting the following Time Machine message: "Machine completed a verification of your backups. To improve reliability, Time Machine must create a new backup for you." It goes on to say, "Click Start New Backup to create a new backup. This will remove your existing backup history. This could take several hours."


I let it back ups several time and still get the same message.


Can anyone help?


Thanks,

I'm also experiencing the same issue. I tried the steps you recommended but getting the same problem.


I'm using a mid 2017 27" iMac with the latest version of Catalina, 10.15.6, with a Synology DS918+. I'm connected to my network via wifi, could that make a difference backing up to the NAS and causing this issue? Any help will be appreciated.


Thank you in advance.
