                      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:

                        [name],
                        recovery_model_desc,

                        WHERE
                        [name] = 'YourDatabaseName'

                            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'
