22.04 Cannot Restore Files from Backup

Asked by Chris Wakeman

My system upgraded to 22.04. I was having issues unable to boot.
I created a backup of all my files in the Recovery Mode. Onto an external 500 GB Hard drive.
I reformatted the hard drive and re-installed 22.04.
Now going to Applications > Utilities > Backup.
I select to Restore from a backup.
And I receive this error: Failed to read duplicity-full-signatures. 20220818T155126Z.sigtar.gz: CRC check failed 0xc5eba518!=0xae357fd0

When I click Retry I get the same error.

I searched for another backup restore application and found what looks like the same version of Backups used to create the back ups.
When I click Restore From a Previous Backup.
I select the 500 GB hard drive and type the Folder name containing the backups.
I get the same error.

I have searched community but only find things from version 17 or earlier.

After multiple reboots.
The Backups application will open the backup folder to restore files.
But now when I click Restore, for any one folder.
I get this error.
I need help restoring many GB of files.
