Ivar, welcome to these public User Forums.

The presence of a .tib.metadata file suggests that you have used the ATI 2020 for Mac application or rescue data, as that is the only ATI application that creates such files.

The Windows ATI 2020 application does not create .tib.metadata files but now uses .tibx files for new disk backup images or else .tib files for folder backups.

I would not recommend deleting any metadata files if you want your backups to be recoverable.
