Time Machine

Now, I may just be incredibly naive but I was always led to believe that TM backed up everything on my computer. Tried to access an earlier version of Reminders today. The list of applications is a fraction of the number on my computer. One of the missing ones is Reminders. Can I find them somewhere else or have they not been backed up. If this is the case how can I make a true and complete backup of my MacBook Pro?


TIA

Time Machine doesn't back up bundled applications in Big Sur and newer; these are reinstalled with the OS. Their data is in your home folder and will be backed up with it unless put in the Trash or manually excluded.
