Hi – I’ve got a similar problem, although I’m not sure if this is the right place to ask… trying to Update to 3.7, I get the message:
“The activity failed to initialise: Unable to write to the local backup directory.”
Doesn’t work as on online backup or an emailed one either. Same thing with plug-in updates… tearing my hair out here, and any pointers would be gratefully received – my info is here:
