The backup dashboard and logs are your first clues about incomplete jobs.
Steps for Windows
- Open the Web Edition dashboard and Backup screen.
- Check the most recent run time and completion state.
- Inspect logs for failures, retries and storage errors.
- Confirm a new revision exists and restore a sample.
How to verify the result
You can point to a successful revision and a working restore.
A green status alone does not guarantee that every intended directory was included.
Why this matters
The practical goal is a recoverable Duplicacy revision, not just a successful-looking progress indicator. Keep your source, backup destination, Backup ID and necessary credentials documented. If this workflow changes your retention or storage configuration, verify a restore before applying it to important data.
