That one is easy: I stopped it. But yesterday, I didn’t stop it but the same thing happened as today: it just didn’t run.

No, there is no visible progress and there is certainly no network traffic (or disk activity, for that matter) from duplicti.

Yes, I changed to duplicati as a service [with some hiccups](https://forum.duplicati.com/t/found-240-remote-files-that-are-not-recorded-in-local-storage-please-run-repair/818/5), but those were resolved and the backup ran fine for at least a day.
