There's no automatic restore fuction, you have to do it by hand.

Basically, you go find the zip file the backup made, unpack it in a directory, and pick out the pieces you want to restore, and drop them onto the broken pieces.

I have to restore the database most frequently. (that is, not very often, but more than the config file)

I've only restored the config file after a factory reset, although sometimes I don't bother and just wander through the settings, it's nice to refresh my memory what's there.
