Hi! I have a few questions for you:

• Is there anything in particular that changed around when the backups stopped working? E.g., Ludusavi update, OS update, or anything you can think of?
• Could you please also try with a non-Flatpak copy of Ludusavi to compare?
• Do all files fail, or just ones from /var/mnt/SSD-980Pro? If it's just that location, is there anything special about it, maybe in terms of its file system or encryption?

Yes, thinking about it a bit, I realized I had changed the save location. I tried the old location (another SSD in the PC) and it worked. The new location was a drive on the network - maybe I need to use the rclone option for that? What's weird is that ludusavi created the folder structure correctly in the new location, but wouldn't actually copy the files.

Thanks for your help and suggestions!
