Restoring to the filesystem is an option to restore VMs directly to the vProtect node storage. (Remember, the vprotect user must have the appropriate write permissions to the given path.)
Restoring to a hypervisor or hypervisor manager is allowed for several providers, but not for all (for detailed info go to vProtect Support Matrix).
Finally, after customizing the restore, click the restore button.

After clicking on it you will see a summary window showing what will be restored.
Click Run to start the restore process.
