Firmware update 6.9.0 broke my backup

After the last update (6.9.0) my automatic backup using Windows/NAS (timestamp) start, do the backup but get stuck to "in progress".

In the log file it say the the operation as been successful but in the console it say that it is in progress. Any future scheduled backup cannot start as it is not finish.

Is there a way to restore the previous firmware?

        We are looking into this. We've already made some changes in our development of 6.9.1, but more may be needed.

         

        We don't recommend downgrading from 6.9.0. In a major update we do make some changes that are not designed to be rolled back.

         

        Once 6.10.0 is released 6.9 will enter LTS mode and will only receive bug fixes and security updates.
