How do you clean up a Dom0 with UUID=5? Normally, there should be about 4 GB of free space. However, I only see 752 MB (Xfce 4 mount extension...)

I’m going to try an answer here, although my previous posts disappeared
in to the discourse black hole.

These files are likely remnants from past backup/restore operations -
possibly failed.
You have two options -

  1. use qvm-move-to-vm to move the whole .backup#restore-5jb_yph2 directory to some other qube, just in case you might be able to do something with it in the future.
  2. Delete the whole directory - just sudo rm -rf .backup#restore-5jb_yph2

I also suggested you look in the .cache directory - there’s something
sizable lurking in there. Again use ls -al to list all files and
directories, including the hidden ones.

I never presume to speak for the Qubes team.
When I comment in the Forum I speak for myself.
