    Where is the folder "empty". If you use the SSMS GUI for restore, then the backup file must have the file extension ".bak", otherwise you have to use plan T-SQL for the restore.

    Thanks for your question.

    Could you kindly provide more details and background regarding the issue? Specifically, which version of SQL Server are you encountering the problem with when restoring the database.

    Is it a PaaS SQL Server or an IaaS/On-premise setup.

    Additionally, it would be helpful if you could share the restore command and, if possible, a screenshot.

    Looking forward to hear from you.
