You can also delete items from your backup. So like if wanted to delete Zoom from Time Machine just select it in a backup and then select the option to remove it from all your backups from the Action menu or a right-click.

Ok but why would I do that? The whole idea of a backup is that I can... go back.

Do other apps launch from backups like this? It’s very strange.

My expectation is that if I want to go back to a backup I have to restore that backup first then run the application. Executing from a backup is surprising and frankly difficult to reason about. What version is even running? How would I know?
