Closed Kruszz closed 3 months ago

Kruszz commented 3 months ago

Description Please excuse my ignorance, as I am not entirely sure if this is even a functionality of the application itself, but I am trying to recover my old media files(which were stored in the Downloads, Documents, Pictures etc directories). After restoring all the applications that could have been safely restored, I notice some media files missing.

Steps To Reproduce

  1. Backup everything
  2. Recover everything
  3. Check the gallery app
  4. Media files have not been recovered

Expected behavior Old media files are recovered as well.

System Information(please complete the following information):

NB isn't meant for files, only apps and their data. Images, videos and such are usually saved in the respective folders. NextCloud as a cloud instance with sync or SyncThing with simple setup are two of the usual solutions.
