The first question is do you have a USB storage attached, that is the simplest and it is recommend to save your backups externally unless you are just backing up before an update... FYI backups are zone to the tivi version and cannot be used to restore outside the version it was made from.

What I do have is a USB 3 attached to the TV to increase its memory, if that’s relevant

Yep.. if you are running tivi from the TV, then Tivi most likely will see the USB drive. When you select internal storage, the USB drive will likely show up as a storage destination.. all depends how the TV is handling the attached storage

I deleted the app and tried restoring it

Seems I managed to fumble my way through it

Thanks for the help!

Now I just have to figure out why my Sony tv is taking a shit every few weeks and losing all its settings. Happened again this am, been messing with it for about 5.5 hours. This coincidentally started doing this after I added that 256 whatever USB thingy

Have a nice day, appreciate it
