Reply 2It seems that you are using a backup that is much older than the date it suggests it is. As the poster above me said, restore the Magento site on a localhost installation with Xampp. That way you can see what data is saved.
If you are truly missing important data I suggest contacting your hosting provider to see if they have more recent backups.
So you are trying to restore a backup from Sat, 15 Nov? But when you restore that your server goes back to a state much older? Is that what you are saying?
Personally I would test doing a restore in a new server (either create another cloud server or set up a local VM). Then it should be clearer what is actually included in your backup.
