        Hi,
even it should work for the first folder entering, maybe it required a
re-enter. In any case, see below.

Could you verify that the backup actually contains files which are not
0-byte sized? Evolution doesn't store 0-byte files, definitely not in
the On This Computer folders, there are always some headers stored at
least. Could there be involved any HDD failure or anything like that?
        Bye,
