Features timeshift allows a user to create a snapshot of their system
When any updates are applied the timeshift program can be used to “rollback” the changes if they should cause problems with the system.
Timeshift for linux is an application that provides functionality similar to the system restore feature in windows and the time machine tool in mac os Timeshift protects your system by taking incremental snapshots of the file system at regular intervals These snapshots can be restored at a later date to undo all changes to the system. I'm using a 2tb external hdd formatted to ext4 and timeshift set to include all files with snapshots installed and mint cinnamon 21.1 live session
Unfortunately, i couldn't find whatever timeshift created in order to make a live usb. If you’re a beginner.learning to use timeshift is a must as it can come in very handy There are two ways to restore a timeshift snapshot.open timeshift and choose a snapshot and click restore The other way is to boot to the live session because sometimes you may not be able to open.
Timeshift has to run with / (root) permissions because the files it has to deal with have / (root) permissions, too
Don't think of it as annoying Sequence and cause to the choice to timeshift restore is in original thread (above).
