Lost the Backup function of my Jolla ...

Going to "Settings" shows (in German) the usual headlines for "Connection", "Security" , etc., but the headline for Backups reads (in English) "!!sync_and_backup" ...

Any idea how I might have killed that and how to restore it ?

You will need developer mode for this.

In a terminal, enter

devel-su

then enter the password you set in developer mode, then enter

pkcon refresh

and then

version --dup

That should fix it. I have no idea what causes this, it seems to be a random bug that someone occasionally encounters. Did you do anything special before you noticed this problem?

That did the trick - thanks a lot !!

Didn't do something "very" special before, but certainly playing around a lot and didn't look for Backup function for a while ....
