LDF file Size is so increased

OK. Explain how! (when you are using the Management Studio you have a 'Script' button at the top of the backup window. Pressing that button will give you the script Management Studio will run - copy that here!) (I ask you this because these kind of things are working so probably you miss something and I try to figure out what)
Skipper: We'll fix it. Alex: Fix it? How you gonna fix this? Skipper: Grit, spit and a whole lotta duct tape.
Please see the generated script USE [TEST_APP] GO DBCC SHRINKFILE (N'TEST_APP_Log' , 0, TRUNCATEONLY) GO I just want to truncate the logs.

TRUNCATE_ONLY option does not reorganize the file but try to free the empty block at the end of the log file...It is possible that without page-reorganization there is no actual space to free... Instead of TRUNCATE_ONLY use tager_size...
DBCC SHRINKFILE('your-log-file', 200) -- for 200 MB
It will take much more time as SQL will try to reorganize pages inside the log file and drop them if marked properly by the backup process...

my issue is still with me. on recovery model simple nothing happend ... can you suggest me some more options??

After changing to simple try shrinking the log file

Are you using replication?

how can i check which one is my current recovery model?? i change it from DB options but on changing full to simple LOG backup is not possible... ** DB is showing its size 221GB including log instead of showing only MDF file size ? what should i do next ?

how can i check the old recovery model? i try to change it from DB options but after changing to simple LOGS backup is not possible. DB is showing its size 221GB including LDF size.. Any suggestion to get out from this issue.

Try running the following query:
SELECT
[name],
recovery_model_desc,
log_reuse_wait_desc
FROM
sys.databases
WHERE
[name] = 'YourDatabaseName'Compare the value returned to the list on TechNet: Factors That Can Delay Log Truncation[^]

running this query, i come to know that log_reuse_wait_desc is REPLICATION. what should i do next ?

Is your database set up for replication? If so, the replication is broken and you'll need to fix it. If it's not set up for replication, then you'll need to remove the replication settings. Try sp_removedbreplication[^]:
EXEC sp_removedbreplication 'YourDatabaseName'
