Welcome to the forum @Siri

This might be relevant, and I wonder if @jfcb ever got with AVM?

          catch(Exception ex)

          {

              Logging.Log.WriteWarningMessage(METALOGTAG, "MetadataProcessFailed", ex, "Failed to process metadata for \"{0}\", storing empty metadata", path);

              return new Dictionary<string, string>();

          }

The one-line summary omits the exception details. Try watching About → Show log → Live → Warning.

If your Duplicati is running as a Windows service, as opposed to you in usual login session, let us know.
