  • I'm a bit late to the game, but this may help someone who runs into this string (like I did).  I was getting this error, then realized that the restore type was wrong.  In the "Select for Restore" drop down box in the BAR, you have several options.  I forgot I was previously performing a VMWare restore, and that setting sticks until you change it.  Once I changed it back to "Restore from normal backup...", all was well. 

    Sometimes, it's the simple things that eat up your troubleshooting time.  ;)
