Status Notification Missing
On my Ubuntu 16.04 Unity the status notification does not appear when sbackup is running.
I found a few possibilities to solve the problem but nothing of them worked for me.
Someone out there with an idea what the problem is?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Oumar Aziz OUATTARA, that solved my question.
There were 2 issues, but basically, Sbackup was not able to find out if the desktop you were using was Unity, Gnome or something else.
