Thanks Dave,

That sounds like it only affects the users+apps Sandbox option, not the users only option?

I will do it anyway since it so easy to recreate a Sandbox.

Absolutely! I participate in their forum as well. I posted my mention of CCC beta 5 to counter the impression given that CCC was in front of SD.

Thanks for the update.

Main questions are:

1. Is it happening to everyone using Superduper, CCC and Chronosync? or only some people. I would have expected it to be more widely reported.

Unless Chronosync is also prebinding (which I haven't heard) the cause is perhaps something in the OS.

Hello Dave,

I have run Superduper! again since the one I posted about and the log only shows the latest. Will it be somewhere else?

I can do it again to generate a log if necessary.
