Hi there,
File History was working fine until June, but after deciding to update, I ran into a surprise: it no longer works!
It doesn't recognize the internal drive anymore, and it fails to recognize other drives I try to use as well.
I uninstalled both KB5129195 and KB5124008 as suggested; the app started working again after the uninstall, but perhaps *too* well—it gets stuck in a loop, repeatedly restoring the same files and filling up the drive. Also, if I click "Restore," it warns me that a download is in progress, even though the download has actually finished.
Any help?
Thanks.
