Timeshift malfunction

Post by ErnestLaughway »

Half the times I use timeshift to manually create or delete a snapshot during the process it simply closes. It simply disappears. No messages, no system errors. This does not happen with any other application and the system seems to run fine. I have Mint Mate 20.2 My computer is HP Notebook 15-db1021nv
Till now I have not done any restoration so I can't tell if there is a problem with the snapshots.

Try reviewing the TimeShift logs. Click the Menu at the top right then select View TimeShift Logs.
