Hey Mrppp,
If you goto Duplicator > Settings > Server Settings and look for:
Root Path or ABSPATH
That is WordPress constant that defines the root of your site. It a future version I might be able to allow you to manually update this value.
Cheers~

right so public_html/ so i guess that is why as my addon is in that path public_html/addon.com
If you want you can manually set the path in the define.php file which is found in the duplicators plugin directory. I haven’t personally tested it this way, but it may work…
You would update something like this:
define(‘DUPLICATOR_WPROOTPATH’, str_replace(“\\”, “/”, ABSPATH));
To:
define(‘DUPLICATOR_WPROOTPATH’, str_replace(“\\”, “/”, ‘/public_html/addon.com’));

What is happening is main directory is public_html/
that holds the WP site ( my main domain) i.e mysite.co.uk
but it also holds public_html/myothersite.co.uk
So rather than just backing up the WP site mysite.co.uk it is also backing up public_html/myothersite.co.uk which is a totally seperate site not even a WP site
I believe the only way around your issue is to do what I mentioned above…
