I had to restore from a Timeshift backup today. I thought all was swell until I went to work on creating a new file. Instead of my file system calling the file like this: /usr/share/applications/Xubuntu.desktop , it's calling it like this: /media/charlieg/5915e2b5-c1ba-44ed-a93a-a437b8a1a85e/usr/sh…

I fixed it myself. Just booted through a live usb, installed timeshift and restored from there. Directory/root is back to normal. Thanks for the advice on better alternatives guys. :+1:

I second that.
I have been using Clonezilla which Rescuezilla is based on for over 10 years. It never failed on me.
