Where does this message come from? Please include complete log or command output of what you're trying to do.– Artur MeinildFeb 19, 2021 at 11:39

You might find this reference useful regarding backups - in particular hidden directories and files which begin with a dot.– grahamFeb 19, 2021 at 12:08

Hi @Artur, I have my PC doing a scheduled weekly backup using Deja Dup and when it's finished it leaves me the messages above. It has done this for every backup. I'm sorry but I am reasonably competent with a PC but I try to use built-in things rather than trying my hand using Terminal commands so I'm afraid I really don't understand what you are asking.– gappy100Feb 20, 2021 at 6:09

I found this existing question that seems a bit similar: askubuntu.com/questions/970270/how-to-make-deja-dup-behave– Artur MeinildFeb 20, 2021 at 8:57

Hi @Artur, thank you for your input. I have read through the reference you suggested but what he has done is not something I am able to do (incomplete instructions) However with a bit more searching I have read that perhaps deja-dup is not supposed to be saving those files anyway. So I am going to just leave it alone and hope everything is OK. So consider this question answered. Thanks for your help Artur.– gappy100Feb 21, 2021 at 4:10
