Since the backup file is a standard zip file, you can also open the backup file with WinZip (or a similar program), and unzip the database file to the desired folder.

This version cannot restore backups made with previous versions (version 3, 4 and 5). To restore such a backup, use the 'Restore Backup Utility', available for download from our web site.
