The status of my backup is "unlinked" - how to relink?

During my backup, my device became "unlinked" but still seems to have backed up. Here is a screenshot. I don't see any options in the 3 dots other than download or delete. How to "relink"?

Thanks, Hannah , you're right that is my backups page

What do you see when you go to the backups tab in the app's preferences on that computer?

And is this the device you were referring to earlier or another one Marc von Amsberg?
