I have noticed scrollbars on the backup page. But I don’t understand why these are needed. There is no missing content. They disappear when the window reaches a certain width.

No idea what this does exactly, will find out.

I can’t repro the vertical scrollbar though 😕

I don’t see it in Firefox, and in Edge, it disappears when the horizontal one disappears. So maybe it’s just Edge 🤷‍♀️
