Tried to get Better, didnt work out. tried to restore this mornings backup:
complete /config folder got wiped… while in the Dashboard, an eery experience.
managed to get to the system menu items (my own yaml config is gone) and trying to restore once again, but this remains in view…
o dear
can we somehow check if this is actually active, or hanging?
I can still ssh in but ha core logs ends with:

I managed to pull of a ha core start in the Terminal, and got a working Frontend. However, still non files in the /config ???:
and whopper, gone is the Dashboard again.
I am completely lost what to do
update
was able somehow to restart via the Terminal (HA interface wouldnt let me because of ‘no configuration.yaml’ that meanwhile had been set back manually…)
Ive immediately unencrypted local backups, as it was impossible to backup via the Backup integration, and that at least gives me the files so I can manually restore if this is to happen once again.
Completely clueless (obviously…) yet as to what happened. (supposing at least it did not have to do with todays ESPHome update )
remarkable is that all of the device/entities/integrations were there, while the complete .storage was erased.
