I created a backup set and changed a single file several times.

When I go to restore, there is no ability to restore from a previous version.
The Help indicates that I should have the ability to restore from any of the previous versions.
Is this true?

Hi,
FBackup does not keep track of previous backup versions.

Only the latest version of the backup is stored in destination.

Do you know you can monitor your backups remotely with Backup4all Monitor? You can read more here: https://www.backup4all.com/backup4all-monitor.html

This totally sucks, but it answers my question. And here's why it sucks. While trying to do a restore, I accidentally started, then immediately stopped, a backup. So the program thinks this is the latest back up - which is empty. Now, because of this stupid inabilty to restore anything other than "latest version of a backup," I cannot restor my actual, latest version of my back up. I can see it, but it won't let me access it. Just great.
