I am using SQL server 2019, SSMS 18.5 and 18.8.
I did a full backup of database manually for databaseA on SSMS on my workstation.
Then I tried to restore the databaseB from the backup of DatabaseA I just did.
From the restore menu of SSMS, in the backup restore sets list window, I cannot see the backup I just did in 1. It listed those backed up earlier through sql agent job.
But on my server I have SSMS 17.5 or 17.4 I remote into my server and I went to the same restore window, and I can see the backup created in 1 was listed there.
if I restore from device, and browse to where the backup file is, the restore works that way too.
What could be wrong about 3.
