February 4, 20242 yr Hey everyone, Can I backup appdata while it is in use (containers not stopped) with something like Duplicacy? I want to encrypt and sftp the data off site. At the moment I use the appdata backup plugin which stops containers and only backs up locally. Thanks!

There is a reason why the container(s) is/are being stopped^^ Otherwise you can use any and i mean any file-sync container/program to sync your backups to somewhere else. I use Syncthing for multiple things but mega-sync works too. Your cup of tea to choose what you gonna use to send files from A to B
