help, I synced with a backup that overpimed everything

Hello,

Is it possible to go back after using the synchronization of the rules with old rules?
This deleted all my rules.

Is there a folder where the rules were stored that I could have saved with my time machine?

Thanks for your help :'(

Can you describe how you set up synchronization? For the folder in question, did you set up a new sync file or sync against an existing one?

If you need to restore from backups, check out this article: https://www.noodlesoft.com/kb/restoring ... m-backups/

Thank you very much for your help.

Unfortunately I hadn't reconnected my Time Machine since I changed my mac at the beginning of the year :'(

I thought that Pcloud was backing up the complete user folder, but finally, there are limitations in the backup.
So, I didn't manage to recover anything.

I used an existing backup on icloud made via another mac.

How does the backup work?
Is it automatic?

If I use the same backup folder between two macs, how does it work?

Thank you.

How backups works is not a Hazel issue. You should contact Apple if you are having issues with Time Machine.

Yes, yes, I know that hazel has nothing to do with backup.
I was just explaining in case other people come by.

Thanks for your help.
