HyperDock 1.7 App: Troubleshooting Time Machine Issues

Time Machine, one of the most reliable backup tools for Mac users, has become increasingly frustrating to use on Ventura. The issue began with disk disappearance from the list in the TM configurations. After waiting a considerable amount of time, the disk would vanish from the list only to reappear when adding it again and selecting the backup disk.

To troubleshoot this problem, I formatted multiple times through Time Machine itself, assuming that the drive was at fault. However, after purchasing a new SSD, the issue persisted. It seemed that enabling Trim in Terminal made no difference, and disabling it had no appreciable impact either.

Furthermore, the interface has become unusable due to time calibration issues on the right side of the screen. The gear cog icon spins for several minutes before allowing file or folder restoration. Although it is faster than on a standard Elements HD, it still takes some time to render backup windows.

In my experience, using an 8 TB SSD only exacerbated the problem. Backups were made in the background, but entering the Time Machine interface was a nightmare due to the spinning gear icon. The once-stellar interface has become a mess, making it better to access backups via Finder instead.

Comparing the Time Machine interface on my iMac running Mac OS Sierra and Ventura is like comparing chalk and cheese. On Sierra, Time Machine works seamlessly, whereas on Ventura, it's plagued by these issues. If anyone knows what's causing this problem and how to fix it, I would be grateful for any insights or solutions.
