V9.9 Build 969 won't selectively restore

When trying to restore a specific directory, using these settings:
Use Original Location
Choose files and restore latest version
Deselecting ALL checkboxes except for the directory I want to restore

Even with the setting above, v9.9 Build 969 will restore EVERYTHING in the backup set. It did this not once, not twice, but three times as I worked to verify I had everything selected properly. Either there is a bug, or I am doing something incredibly stupid.

Please help me identify which.

I also seem to be unable to locate any relevant logs that contain information related to these restores - where would they be?

Hi,

We were not able to reproduce the problem here.
Only the selected file/folder was restored.

Please try to restore the files to a new folder and see if you can reproduce the problem, as you might already have some of the source files in the original location (not to create confusion).

@Adrian -
Still the exact same issue. See screenshots. I stopped the restore mid-process after it was trying to restore other folders/files than I had selected. What can be done?
This is definitely reproducible.

Hi,

I was able to reproduce the problem.
It appears only if you also have sources added with a plugin in the same backup job.

I will create a ticket for this problem and we will fix it.
