I ticked the box in Time Machine to show ‘backup now’ but it isn’t showing in the menu bar. Any suggestions on how to run a backup?

The Time Machine backup just shows a stack of Finder windows. I have read a lot of posts about this but none can get me past this problem.

MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 12.3
