It is important to know that when you take backups, make sure you have copied the files to your computer. Because if it has not yet been copied and one day the router is reset, the file will of course be lost and there is no way to do it restore (Give it back).
And never do a restore for the Mikrotik router miscellaneous although they have the same series because an error occurs. So use a backup file for just one microtik.
Hopefully useful and good luck
