+  * "There was an error uploading the backup file. The backup file you are trying to load is from a newer version of the UniFi Controller and cannot be used with this controller".
+The restore is not functioning because you're uploading a newer controller backup on an older controller, that is not supported.
+To resolve this issue, update the firmware to a version higher or equal to the version of your backup.
