Try restart your windows server service.

Ok,

 

It might be that it cannot perform this function as its a flash backup / vmware backup type. NetBackup Windows type backups collect all the ACL information needed to restore the share / permissions. Falshbackup does a different type of backup where it backups up the file system instead of the files, so maybe it doesn't collect the info.

 

Not sure about this.

Please tell us more about 'shared folder'.

Is it a local drive on the VM? vmdk or RDM?
Or a network share?

So, the first step is to ensure that the share is backed up.

Marianne Drive on VM-Guest is VMDK. And shared is backed up.

Can i just confirm that you have restored the folder to the original location on the original client?

What did the restore log say - better still the tar log if you have it
