I can't find an option under 'edit' to organise a backup of my catalog in my LR version 8.4.

You have the cloud based Lightroom Desktop installed which doesn't offer backups as its cloud based.

Lightroom Classic does offer backups (the traditional Lightroom), are you sure you don't want to be using that?

Thank you for the answer.
1. Does that mean that in the cloud version a backup is no need and the applicable catalogus is available in the cloud?
2. What are the most imporatant benefits of the LR classic compared to the cloud version?
3. If I should go for the classic, how to get my pictures and catalogus from the cloud to the classic?

Thank you for the aswer Rob.

Everything looks ok for my. The synchronisation struggles with a 'single' picture and therefore the synchro never stops. Unfortunately I cannot find the troublemaking picture. Other and newer pictures are synchronised.

You may get a clue to problem images by going to Lightroom Web and looking for Sync Issues.
