1.14.1 (2026-07-12)
Patch release fixing retention/forget operations being silently skipped and snapshot file downloads failing after a repo ID change. Included highlights from 1.14.0 are redesigned summary dashboard, backup status in the tray icon, restic v0.19.1, and added Korean + Polish translations.
Note: you can install backrest with ./install.sh --experimental-linux-tray for experimental support for an icon in the linux menu bar. Tray icons are available by default with the Windows installer, and a new macOS app is available which is built with the tray icon enabled as well.
