Description

Hi,

I'm unable to see a sparsebundle created by TimeMachine stored on an external drive in macOS Mojave. I tried to "Toggle hidden files" but it made no difference. How can I make it visible?

Best, Cranky

The issue names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by reproducing the missing Time Machine sparsebundle on macOS Mojave with an external drive and compare the result after using “Toggle hidden files”; done means the sparsebundle is visible in fman or the limitation is documented.
