    You need to give us more info. 

    Can you please take screenshots of the entire restore process? 
    Firstly the source and destination client screen, and the the last screen with restore path. 

    I'm not sure that restore of .nsf file is supported to a folder that is not part of Lotus Domino database structure. 
    Best to read up in the NBU for Lotus Domino manual about supported restore options.

      Hi @ Marianne

      We created a folder in the desktop of lotus domino Server because we dont know if we restore the .NSF file to its original location, is there any conflict on the other .nsf existing file?

      So we try first to restore it in the outside which is in the desktop. then the admin will be the one to put it in the lotus domino databases.

      We already tried to restore it from the client it self which domino server and from the NBU console.

      But same result. Successful Restore but no .nsf file in that folder.

        I am not a Lotus Domino expert. 
        You will need to check if restore is supported to a regular folder outside of Domino.

        To know what exactly NBU has done with the restored file, please ensure that you have enabled logging. 
        You need to have the following log folders:
        On master : bprd  (restart NBU after creating the folder) 
        On Destination client : tar 
        Increase logging level to 3 before attempting another restore.

        bpbrm and bptm logs on the media server might also be useful, but above 2 logs should be sufficient to see what is happening. 

        Please copy logs to .txt files - bprd.txt, tar.txt and upload as attachments after next restore attempt.
