At this point, with all this strangeness I may have to just reinstall this TrueNAS.

That’s not the issue.

You were saving files directly inside your root dataset “GamakBaseBackup”.

You should never do this. I’m not even sure how you were able to, since TrueNAS has safeguards that try to prevent saving files directly inside the root dataset’s filesystem.

However now if I try to make a dataset using the same name “GamakBackup” I get a middleware error from the TrueNAS wizard.

What likely happened is that you created/mounted the dataset “GamakBackup” over a folder of the same name.
