I have a Proxmox Cluster and a Proxmox Backup Server with ZFS. On this Backup Server is a backup of a VM which I mistakenly deleted.
Now I want to restore a backup of this VM. How can I do this?

Is it possible to restore only some files to another VM?

Thanks for your help.

did you try the file restore button on the VMs backups in PVE?

I would love to try this, but I already removed the VM. There is no such VM in PVE. I only see the backup file on the backup server.

If you look from PVE Storage view/Backups/Yourbackupserver instead of from Server view/Node/VM you should see all backups and also be able to try the file restore button there:
