Restoring VMware "plugin" backups (those taken using the Backup tab) to an alternate location is only the first step in the restoration process.
After you have restored the VMware image file to a .nvm format file in a temporary location, you will need to run this command line specifying the host, user/password, VM name and datastore location.
C:\Program Files\NovaStor\NovaStor NovaBACKUP\vmware>vmware restore --host 192.168.0.45 --user root --password PASSWORD --vmname "WinXP Restored from 46" --file "C:\Users\Administrator\Desktop\zz-winxp\VMware\192.168.0.46\ZZ - Win XP x86\ZZ - Win XP x86.nvm" --datastore "AG-SCSISTOR02"
