    Where is the backup being saved? Is there enough space on your backup device?
    While in menu -> setup -> Vix -> image manager press menu again to check/select the backup location.

    Do the same with your settings backup location
    menu -> setup -> Vix -> backup manager press menu again to check/select the backup location

    BTW, it is normal for image backups to take many minutes with the indicator bar appearing to stall for long periods during this activity.

    You can also disable a settings backup before updating if you think it will help this issue....

    Really donˋt know why you need swap file, this is not like the h9s which had limited flash (hence the facility to move root to sd card for h9s).
    Also as advised by adm go to ViX plugin ———-> BackupManager and then hit the menu button and find where the settings backußps are being saved - ensure its saving to a valid hdd/usb device

    What you may want to do is recover the space on the device that previously had the "faulty" backups
    Go back into menu -> setup -> Vix -> backup manager press menu again and set up the previous location/device. Then menu -> setup -> Vix -> backup manager and delete the backus you find there. Then setup your new location again.

    Do the same with image manager.

    Maybe also check after the update that that your backup location is still pointing to your new location.
