Hello,

I create some backups with the proxmox-backup-client, when there are not encrypted I can download a single file from the PBS webgui.
Is there a way to do this also with encrypted host backups?

Thanks.
 
You could use the catalog shell like this:
Code:
proxmox-backup-client catalog shell host/elsa/2019-12-03T09:35:01Z root.pxar --keyfile mykey.json
then select and restore your file. More here: https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/backup-client.html#interactive-restores
You can also mount the snapshot using this command, then copy a single file over:
Code:
proxmox-backup-client mount host/backup-client/2020-01-29T11:29:22Z root.pxar /mnt/mountpoint --keyfile mykey.json
More on that here: https://pbs.proxmox.com/docs/backup-client.html#mounting-of-archives-via-fuse
