Restore backup output error message

[scott1047]

I did a backup of my company data before restoring a previous year backup to do some research. When I tried to restore my current year company data it won't let me. Somehow it got messed up. When I try to do the restore I get an error message that says "output error" and the previous year company information that I looked up comes back and I can't get my current year data back. Can anyone help me?

I would try restoring the backup into a shell company. Basically just create a new company but name it New-"yourcompanyname" so you can tell them apart and it makes a new folder for it. Ignore entering other information, all you need is the company name because the backup will restore all your other settings.
