Explanation copied from above:
With a default install of backup manager it is automatically set to enable backup at startup. Normally when it is trying to do it's 1st backup it and it isn't configured it popups a dialog that let's you choose where to save these backup. This window blocks until the user selects a folder or cancels. But this isn't done in the main part of the program, but in the part now done in the background. So that window must open in the background and is awaiting an input.
Another problem with this script is that it doesn't specify which files to keep when updating the script. So even if you had a fully functioning script and updated it wouldn't keep it's configured path and you wouldn't bat an eye thinking it kept backing files, because all other plugin keep their configs.
Since I had the plugin fully configured I've never witness the issue. So the solution is easy, just configure the script manually once and restart the program. It will probably still have issues because looking at the code there are a lot of message box that may popup if you have an error or say too many files. So I will probably remove v1.3 until it gets a big redo so that there are no form blocking that may happen.
TLDR:
Either configure Backup Manager with a path (and restart) or downgrade to v1.2. Or disable backup on startup.
