windows server backup overwrites new backups instead of old

My server running windows server 2008 R2 seems to overwrite the newest backups which it has never done before. The server has been doing daily backups for years and its oldest vss copy is from the beginning of 2017, but ever since the server crashed on October 8th its started to overwrite the latest backups. The server shows a list of recent backups from this week starting on October 9th but I can only access the backups from October 12th to the 18th which indicates its starting to overwrite its latest backups. How can I change the backup settings to overwrite the oldest backups instead of the newest.

I also want to include that it has overwritten backups from not only October but also the past few months. So now there is a giant gap of deleted backups from  01/27/2018 to 10/12/2018, the only backups that the server has saved currently is from 01/01/2017 to 01/26/2018 and its latest backups from this week which the server has started to overwrite.
