So what could I do now? I have access to both hosting, database and ftp folders, but this is getting close to the end of my knowledge.Your gut feeling is correct. It is necessary to restore into an empty folder. Otherwise the results are unpredictable because of the mixture of files and folders from different versions.
Joomla is installed in a public_html folder, could I simply delete all files from the folder and install the backup again?
The database is what stumps me, can I just create a new one, restore the backup connecting to that one and delete the old one?
Please excuse me if they are stupid questions, I just would like not be yelled at by a superior and I don't want to cause further issues.
