That doesn't harm anything.
Backup to internal message mean that your USB stick wasn't recognized.
Just re-do it with a connected usb storage stick...

It does not mean that your games are gone if you reboot
It won't restore anything, until you boot the DB-restore payload...

Thats fine. You can leave the internal backup alone.
In case you decide to restore the DB in the future, just make sure that your usb storage is connected and recognized in the settings. Then the DB restore payload will use the usb one.

Its perfectly safe and normal. Theres nothing to worry about.
All it means is that you have a ''copy' of your database files. If something ever goes wrong with your PS4 in the future you can safely restore this backup/copy to get your games back on the home screen.

In fact you should run the database backup every week or every time you install or delete a game so that you always have a backup of your PS4's database.

in the future you can safely restore this backup/copy to get your games back on the home screen.:- EVEN IF SYMLINKS GAMES (ABB2USB)

Yes, but remember it is only a "database" backup. It wont work if you initialize your PS4.

If your PS4 ever forces a database rebuild it will remove any fake pkgs from your homescreen. Restoring this backup will fix that.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH YOU ARE THE BEST : EXCUSE ME - WHAT ABOUT AVATER BACKUP - WHAT DOES IT MEAN

 

[godreborn]

avatar backup won't affect games appearing on the home menu. you only need the app.db for that. I was encountering some sort of error with final fantasy vii, so I backed up my app.db, rebuilt the database, then transferred the app.db back over. everything is now fixed. just make sure you keep that file safe. the addcont.db may be important for dlc as well. I'm not sure if that disappears when you rebuild the database. saves are fine and notification.db can be deleted to remove any trace of installing misnamed pkgs.

--------------------- MERGED ---------------------------

I think addcont is safe from what I remember, because I think I still had the theme I was using when I got back to the home screen. that's in mnt/sandbox/pfsmnt from what I remember. themes are considered dlc.

never used app2usb, but afaik, it creates a symlink between the internal hdd, so you may be able to get the games back by using the python script for the internal hdd. don't know for sure if it will work. if you had done extended storage, the games would work by being repopulated by hen.

If symlink is broken you would need to reinstall the games even though the fpkg data is on the external drive, should have use extended format instead of app2usb.

[godreborn]

Probably have to reinstall if the symlink is broken, you may as well move to extended format. Also don't write in cap here it is fucking rude to write in cap.

btw, you can dump the packages from the system with extended storage or internal. they;re identical to what you installed, so you can share them with friends if you want. it's just slightly more work.
