I put this here because the solution is not easy to find.

If you try to restore from a backup and you get only empty or incompletely populated folders, the solution is to use the Revert (to...) button instead of Restore (to...). The reason is hidden here: https://answers.launchpad.net/sbackup/+faq/1325 .

I only found out through serendipidy after spending much time testing and trying. Maybe a mouseover tooltip or a more intuitive labelling of the buttons could be helpful.
