# Keep Replica Versions in WSC

The Keep replica versions setting enables you to keep each modification of the source file as a separate version on the bucket. When disabled, each new modification of the source file will overwrite the replica on the bucket.

> To use the Keep replica versions setting, versioning must be enabled on the bucket. For more information, review [Bucket Settings: Enabling](https://docs.wasabi.com/docs/bucket-settings-wsc).

> Once enabled, this setting will apply to each source mapped to the bucket that has versioning enabled on the bucket.
