Thread: What folders should be backed up prior to installing updates?

i make backup of files needed restore should want out updates. guess i'm looking provide fail-safe method of backing out updates backing system files prior updates premise should able restore these folders original location , reboot put things way were.

have been burned several times on after installing updates , had application or system function not work , not have time allocate towards troubleshooting update caused issue. figuring backup prior updates should give me quick restoration option if need things , running again quickly.

have sbackup , running , have been able backup , restore folders to/from external drive. if list out folders need backed , restore prior applying normal ubuntu updates, highly appreciative.

in advance,
