This is a very valuable feature. I have the second copy backups going to iCloud so I always have a recent offsite version available.

This means that it was unable to create a file reference pointing to the folder you have selected there. It is possible that disks have changed, or that you didn’t mean to have that turned on and never selected a folder or something has gone wrong with that.
