Farhan, are you trying to perform restore to original location?

Farhan, are you trying to perform restore to original location?

Yes, I'm trying to restore this DB in original location where it was previously. I tried restoring in another folder on same volume, but didn't help.

Hi Farhan,

Does your DB reside on the same drive with the system?

I believe that you should have included your system volume in your backup in order to be able to restore some particular DB.

Please see this article and this guide to get more info on how MSSQL explorer works:

To be able to explore and recover the necessary database, you should have a transactionally-consistent backup of your Microsoft SQL Server created successfully

Thank you.
