No, I didn't make any backups manually (inside User Manager). The strange thing is that after loading log from file (in terminal), User Manager doesn't show anything in his log.
User Manager is very strange indeed - there are some things that are duplicated - some of them are accessible from User Manager, some of them from terminal. Sometimes, these two are not the same and then various problems are appearing. Many old bugs are not fixed and Mikrotik stuff gives low priority to User Manager
