maybe you could post the contents of your current backup file?
cat /opt/.filetool.lst
cat /opt/.xfiletool.lst
The top file is for files to be added to backup
the bottom file is for files to be excluded from backup
#############################
I have a fully persistent home so for me home is not listed in that file.
That means I have to do my own spring cleaning especially any web browser cache.
So if I was forecast a possible reason for the issue repeating it might be because you have
home named somewhere in your .filetool.lst without an exclusion named in
/opt/.xfiletool.lst of .setbackground ?
tc@box:~$ cat /opt/.filetool.lst
opt
home
opt/eth1.sh
tc@box:~$ cat /opt/.xfiletool.lst

I can now say that the problem happens after I update these extensions in the App GUI:
