The CWM backup is located in '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' (from root) and is not visible from the pc.
Using ES file explorer or root explorer copy the folder in the '/data/media/clockworkmod/backup/' directory to '/data/media/0/' and then you'll be able to see it from your pc and copy across....... remember to delete the copy from '/data/media/0/' afterwards

Unfortunately, i do not have such directory path like you specified.
I installed Clockwork Rom Manager and it tells me the backup is in inaccesible area, path: Device: mnt/shell/emulated/clockworkmod/backup
But the mnt/shell folder is empty and I cant find clockword folder. Any solution to this ?

When navigating to root with a file explorer are you unable to see the directories I listed?

Using your path, I can only go for: Device: /data/ and it is empty

No it can't be empty.... check your file explorer is root enabled, if you're using ES then settings>tools>root explorer

TWRP recovery copy issue

Friends....I have two TWRP backup on my HTC ONE. I want to transfer them on my PC so hat i can save 4 GB of disk space but for some reason i cannot copy the main file which is around 1.5 gb and is named 'system.ext4.win'. I tried copy/cut both but of no use. When i copy and paste in same location it gives error that cannot copy 'system.ext4.win'. Plz help :crying::crying:. Just for added info I can copy all other things like Titanium backup

Older versions of TWRP incorrectly set the permissions. Use root explorer or ES File Explorer to set the permissions properly.

[Q] root "doesn't" work

Some days ago I installed a signed-flashable-prerooted zip to upgrade to Lollipop (14.5.A.0.242). I completely followed the steps, I wiped the cache, the Dalvik/ART cache and data. All went fine during the installation and so on.
Afterwards I installed Titanium Backup to remove the bloatware, but instead of completely removing the selected apps they seem to be unaffected, but when clicked on them they started and closed in a matter of seconds. The ES File Explorer doesn't seem to properly as well. For example, I can't delete the bootanimation.zip to replace it with my own.
Might there be any fix to it?
