My goal is to create a new system drive using Windows Backup Manager
I have WBM created nightly backup data including system state and bare metal
I have a new drive initialized with GPT

After executing "RESTORE" in WBM, and selecting the date of the desired restore, what do I restore?

Thanks for any help,

    Hi,

    Windows Server 2016 is currently not supported in the Q&A forums, the supported products are listed over here https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/products (more to be added later on).

    You can ask the experts in the dedicated Windows Server 2016 forum over here:
    https://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/home?forum=ws2016

    (Please don't forget to accept helpful replies as answer)

    Best regards,
    Leon
