Howdy,

If the home directory and database are part of the backup, then your domain's files would be included within the backup... you may just need to look within the folders to find your files.

Also, if you did a backup using the default "New Format", you would find the database backup in a directory named ".backup" within that archive.

Hi Eric, thank you I just found problem. I extracted it using 7zip (in Windows) and it extracted in several folders instead correct folder structure.
