$ rclone backend untrash drive:crypt_backup/uri604ck9ip3bgvig9cifhb3bk -i
2023/08/30 23:11:08 Failed to backend: command "untrash" failed: directory not found

Where drive: is a google drive non encrypted backend.

What I'm doing wrong? Thanks!

Try adding --drive-trashed-only to this command.

Hmm, untrash doesn't untrash the root of the tree which is why it isn't working I think.

Try this

rclone backend untrash drive:crypt_backup  --include /uri604ck9ip3bgvig9cifhb3bk --drive-trashed-only -vv

yea, I've had sometimes better lock copy/move files with

--drive-trashed-only

than by using untrash to recover (and then copy/move), never quite figured out why, but perhaps ncw's explanation above is the reason.

As an aside, it be nice if untrash could work through a crypt remote (i.e. --drive-trashed-only does)
