Backup location invalid after upgrade to 2025.5.3 #6036
Description
Describe the issue you are experiencing
I upgraded to 2025.5.3 and at some point in time (13th of June) backups to my cifs share no longer work.
I do see all previous backups (latest being preformed when upgrading to 2025.5.3)
I upgraded now to 2025.7.3 without running a backup hoping this would fix things, it didn't.
The problem is that as of 2025.5.3 when making the backup, it uses a invalid location/mount.
Error creating backup: Backup failed: [{'type': 'BackupError', 'message': 'Cannot open backup file /data/mounts/Backup/Automatic_backup_2025.7.3_2025-07-22_21.50_06690268.tar for writing', 'stage': 'addon_repositories'}]
On my home assistant green I can't find this location either.
I can download old backups via the UI which are in fact stored in the same CIFS share?!?
I already recreated the share, did not help.
What do I need to do such that the backup functionality picks the right location?
