Restoring Backup for Microsoft SQL Server

Blow are the steps for restoring backup for Microsoft SQL Server:

1. In the CloudBacko Pro main interface, click the Restore icon.

2. Select the backup set that you would like to restore.

3. Select the backup destination that you would like to restore data from.

4. Select the database(s) or raw file(s) you would like to restore. You can also choose to restore backed up database or raw file from a specific backup job of your choice using the Select what to restore drop-down menu at the top. Click Next to proceed when you are done with the selection.
