Can’t you just use Migration Assistant or TimeMachine restore? Regarding the .cleverfiles folder!: Do you use or did you ever use Disk Drill, a disk utility published by CleverFiles. Disk Drill creates the folder .cleverfiles to help recover files or folder.

You can boot your Mac Mini in target disk mode. That way you can use it as an external thunderbolt drive. You can get a thunderbolt 2 to thunderbolt 3/usb-c adapter (Apple sells one). But you can get yourself a 1TB external SSD for about the same price as the adpater!

Try this: Use terminal in recovery mode to change the date to 2011, date {month}{day}{hour}{minute}{year} example: date 010101012011 Maybe it works, maybe not, but it doesn’t hurt to try!

Weird, good luck!

I don’t if you solved it, but: AFAIK using Shift-Option-Command-R starts up from macOS Recovery over the internet. No Mac system/disk/partition needed! It should even work without SSD/HDD! This article may be interesting...
