Restore backup - needs to use that exact same 'Mini tree' folder picker
When I click on 'Restore backup' from the Settings window I am then taken back into the SE file manager as a user process to locate the backup file (.SEB)
This implementation of Restore Backup is wrong for these reasons:
1.) It confuses a user into thinking that the 'restore backup' is not working in a bug like state while defaulting back to the file manager view.
2.) Other files are not omitted from being shown when navigating for the backup file.
3.) There is no way to cancel the 'Restore backup' during navigation except to fully exit the app. Problems have arisen in my tests such as SE prompting me to restart because I am doing regular file manager activities (Renaming, Moving etc) during the same Restore process.
To fix this issue, all that needs to be implemented is the use of the same 'Mini tree' pop up that is also currently shown used for 'Create backup'
The Mini tree would simply give a full tree directory display of entire storages and would only be able to filter 'see' the backup file (.seb)
Also this same requested Mini tree should also auto-expand any last used folder of where a last backup was saved to or last restored from.

Or perhaps even better...
Pressing on 'Restore backup' in the Settings could display a prompt message telling the user to exit settings and locate ir search for the SEB backup file itself.

The same prompt message could advise the user on creating a Bookmark folder of where all backups can be kept.
