SD never passes Preparing Snapshot
I posted earlier this month that after upgrading to Catalina and to SD3.3.1, my SD would hang on launch. Deleting prefs solved this problem, but since then SD has not completed a single backup successfully.
Currently, SD has been stuck on "Preparing <HD Name> snapshot" since Monday of this week. SD is responsive, not crashed — if I click Stop it gives me the confirmation dialog. Before I click Stop and confirm, I thought I'd post here to see if there were useful troubleshooting steps I should engage in. Here's the current log for this four-day run: Code:
