    Hi Ahmad Abdulrahman, thanks for bringing this to our attention.

     

    In general, it should no longer be possible to view the backups of other machines on your current device, and you can only see them from the site

     

    If you're still able to view these backups, then in the near future, those will also be removed from Explorer.

     

    If you have any further queries, feel free to message back.
