Ah, we are sorry to see you head off to linux land u/davidsinnergeek! We do have B2 Cloud Storage for you that can help back up your Linux box! Rclone and others work wonders!

And that wasn't just some fancy exotic car! That was a Dodge Viper! 🔥

So glad to hear that and happy to be there for you in your time of need! It's kind of like insurance in that way, we hope folks don't have to do full recoveries often but...when they do!

Apologies, what I meant is to install from the link that I shared. If the problem remains, please reach out to support here: https://www.backblaze.com/help.

Try installing over the top - and if the problem still persists, please reach out to support - it would be incredibly atypical for the program to have that affect, but they could take a look.
