Thanks for the info. I guess it’s not a big deal to me since I’ll have at most 10-20GB backed up. But it may be a problem for people with terabytes backed up.

Here’s the steps followed for a fast restore in case anyone else comes across this:

```
rclone sync onedrive:/backups/kopia kopiarepo
kopia repo connect filesystem --path kopiarepo
kopia restore <snapshot id> kopiarestore

```

On a side note, “rclone sync” was 7x faster for me than “kopia repo sync-to”.
