Last year, Magic Banana explained to me how to configure backups to another machine over my local network. I have been using it to backup my Trisquel laptop onto another machine running Hyperbola. This is my last machine still running Hyperbola, and I would now like to wipe it and install another distro.
Before I do, I would like to recover a directory which I deleted from my Desktop directory several months ago. My understanding is that I should be able to do this in Caja by right clicking and selecting "Restore Missing Files..." When I do this, a window pops up which says that it is scanning for files, but it does not find any. My expectation was that I would be prompted for my Hyperbola user's password, followed by the encryption password for the backup, which is what happens when I do a full backup or a full restore. Has anyone managed to restore individual files from a backup through Caja? Deja Dup says to use "Files", which might refer to Nautilus. I don't mind installing Nautilus temporary for this task, but if I use this setup again in the future I'd like to get it working with Caja.
