Mint, Pipewire and Timeshift

Hi,

If I install Pipewire in Mint (20.3) and it all goes horrendously wrong can I use Timeshift to go back to the pre-Pipewire state?

I'm pretty sure I can but want to be sure.

This is a screen grab* of Timeshift settings:

My current hobby seems to be installing/reinstalling assorted distros when the
'Why? WHY? It was working a minute ago!'
moments become too frequent; the new Mint installation and Pipewire implementation are my latest attempts at getting back to making music instead but I've learned that those technical eggs won't necessarily equate to musical chickens.


* I'm sorry for the accessibility-unfriendly screen grab; I couldn't copy and paste the text.

That is what it is for. I've made several Timeshift backups. Can't say I've ever had to use the restore but I have faith it must work as advertised.
