iPhone : Corrupted backup

Hello,

I got the error message of "iTunes could not backup the iPhone <...> because the backup was corrupt".

Previously I have some backup files in this PC, however now there's no backup files in the "Backup" folder.

I have ensured that Windows and iPhone updates have taken place, then I tried to rename the "Backup" folder in the system and retry to backup to no avail.

How to create new iTunes backup?

Appreciate your help.

Betty
