Timeshift

[Domenico]

Good morning,
on my PC with MX Linux I would like to deactivate or uninstall Timeshift. How should I do it?

[m_pav]

To uninnstall, open a terminal, issue the following

Code: Select all

sudo apt remove timeshift

Or you can use the following if you want to go hard and remove the configs added to your system

Code: Select all

sudo apt remove --purge timeshift

The latter will only remove system configs, not those in your homedir, and any snapshots it created may have to be manually removed afterwards.

Check the terminal output carefully to ensure it doesn't remove anything you need to keep.

Disclaimer
I've never used Timeshift so I have no idea how to deactivate it.

You can deactivate Timeshift by either unchecking all the boxes in schedule,
or if your using xfce, then
go to /etc/cron.d and remove the file named:
timeshift-hourly
