Time Machine has been failing to backup due to an error that reports an attempted backup of 1230754.5 MB (the actual size is less than 42 GB) that is too large to fit on the 250 GB hard drive.
I found these errors in the console:

I'm guessing this is the problem, but I can't find the files. I'm working on my employer's computer who says she deleted the Boot Camp app last month, but a search about Boot Camp says it should be uninstalled from within the program. Neither file are in the location the console gives, and I've tried looking for invisible files but have had zero luck.
Does anyone have any ideas?
Thanks.
