I wrote to Bombich support saying I don't see in the menu item when I had last backed up (quick glance without launching CCC 6 because CCC 5 had it). Got reply from Rob C saying that the menubar item is still available. I followed up explaining politely, yes, I already have the menu item but there's no info there. The Activity bar shows nothing after a day. Got reply again from Rob C saying "the Activity tab in the menubar gives that level of information, do you find what you are looking for there?" Seems Rob C doesn't read or can't read. So I sent him a one-liner "I've already explained in words, but maybe you need pictures." And attached screenshots showing the Activity bar completely blank. No reply from that point on because Bombich Support by Rob C is totally bogus. He won't read when it's more than one sentence, and he gets embarrassed when the picture shows exactly what I had explained in more than one sentence. What can you do?

J'ai acheté une licence en Novembre 2020 et en Juin 2021 une mise à jour payante (7 mois) . Honteux je regrette d'avoir acheté Copy Carbon Cloner. N'achetez pas chez Bombich vous allez payer en permanence. Ou vous payez ou vous gardez les vieilles versions. A chaque mise à jour, il faudra payer.

I wish I could give more stars as I appreciate the difficulty in producing a backup system for macOS when Apple make it challenging with their own updates that can corrupt the process. I have personally found that this is not a backup solution for a MacBook that you choose to back up wirelessly over a network. This is despite the advertising that it could be from Bombich on their landing page. If you choose to plug your laptop into a hard drive on a daily basis then this may work for you. Issues I encountered are: - The backup process intermittently failed on a regular basis over the network. - When I actually needed it, the restore process completely failed which lead to hours of attempted data recovery. On my initial attempt the data storage process meant that it restored the system to a separate disc image that bricked the hard drive and required a complete reinstall of the Mac OS. I then had to trawl the files to restore my documents. - When I contacted support they just stated that it was my fault for choosing the particular backup system and not plugging my laptop in to create a bootable hard drive. There wasn't much of an effort to resolve any issues. Very disappointing. On a more positive note, my data was actually backed up, although it was a struggle to get retrieve it. I have since moved back to Time Machine.
