Hi, just saw the e-Mail in passing. I'll try to take a closer look tonight.

Wait - "delete d"?

At least that much works :). Is the backup marked as successful? > Got fatal error during xfer (Unable to read 4 bytes) > Backup aborted (Unable to read 4 bytes) As I said, I can't look closer right now. What I would have expected to happen is that the backup is marked as unsuccessful and discarded (or kept as a partial if it's a full). I didn't think much further than that. Deleting files past the point of failure doesn't make any difference for a backup that will be discarded, but it's a bad idea for a partial, so I might have to think of something better. Was your backup actually a full? One possibly unrelated thing I notice is that the files quoted above are marked "pool", not "same". Is that what you expect (moved or copied photos), or is it the result of a previous partial which failed in a similar way (but then there should be nothing left to delete, should there)?
