Typically the `Expected there to be a temporary fileset for synthetic filelist` errors are related to the backup job having been interrupted. What destination are you using? > [@Irritating error message](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/irritating-error-message/416/2): > > A synthetic filelist is a list of files that Duplicati creates after it has been interrupted, in an attempt to give access to as much as possible. The synthetic filelist is used by taking the previous file list, and adding/updating new files where data was successfully uploaded. It does not remove files, and it is not a real disk-snapshot, hence the name “synthetic”. The warning is that Duplicati expected the code to generate a synthetic filelist and mark it temporary (i.e. in-progress), but n… What are you seeing that makes you feel it has restarted? Chances are the interrupted DID cause your backup to re-start, but the first thing it does is scan through everything to see what was already completed so it can pick up where it last left off. Duplicati is pretty robust, you shouldn’t have to do anything and should figure out what to do on it’s own. However, if you want to try something you could add the `--disable-synthetic-filelist` parameter to your backup job and see what happens. > –disable-synthetic-filelist > If Duplicati detects that the previous backup did not complete, it will generate a filelist that is a merge of the last completed backup and the contents that were uploaded in the incomplete backup session. --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/removing-file-listed-as-deleting/1455)._
