  • I wanted to upgrade my Ubuntu to a newer version, but I had to do it through the command line. During the upgrade it asked if I wanted to see the file changes or something, so I said yes for fun… I couldn’t get out of the menu, or rather I didn’t know how and seemed to be stuck halfway through the upgrade. I tried a bunch of keys and possible combinations including… Ctrl + X.

    So after quitting the terminal halfway through a system upgrade I tried to restore through backup. Turns out the backup was corrupted or something and didn’t work. I never realized because I never thought to test it. I lost a few years of photos and some music files that I’ve had probably for decades that I downloaded off Limewire. I still have the backup file in case it can be salvaged some day, but oh well. Most of the files I was able to download again off of the bay.
