I try to create a system restore point
But I find the default option Zorin 9
Searched System Tools / System settings and there is no option.


Anyone know how to do this
Muchas Gracias.

Hi,

use Déjà Dup, (backup tool) it is already installed:

https://help.ubuntu.com/community/BackupYourSystem

You'll find it under: Zorin Menu > Accessories > Backups:

Strange it isn't showing in your System Settings?. If you find it isn't installed, open a terminal (Ctrl + Alt + t) and paste the following command to install it:

Code:
sudo apt-get install deja-dup deja-dup-backend-gvfs

Thanks Wolfman
Did not have it installed, but already installed from the software center, just in trying "backing up" is interrupted and get this error
Unable to restore "/home/juan/.cache/deja-dup/metadata ': File not found in the copy of seguirdad

Any idea of the problem?

Hi, for a complete system backup use redobackup from redobackup.org - Stephanie is well pleased with it! :D

Hi,

I don't use it myself so I don't know how it works, see this:
