Hello, I recently reinstalled manjaro with btrfs, so that taking snapshots would be easier because my pc freezes too much and i have to force shutdown it with power button almost once every week. But now every time I am forced to force my pc to turnoff, all the snapshots dissappear from timeshift. They do appear in the grub menu however until timeshift creates another backup and they are gone for good.
Upon exploring the timeshift-btrfs subvolume I found that the snapshots were still there but the info.json file was blank. I don’t know what to do any further. Please guide me to the next steps of fixing it.
Thank you.
