Backup Restore Deleted my database

That’s because if you use the default recorder database (SQLite) this got corrupted during every backup process.

It was fixed (or at least merged) in December 2021 with https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/61161 / https://github.com/home-assistant/core/pull/60874.

Don’t know when and which way it was shipped (probably Supervisor? Or Home Assistant Core directly?) but if you nowadays create and restore a backup, the SQLite recorder database should work without issues.

Update:
See details @ Fix corrupted / malformed SQLite database (home-assistant_v2.db) - #23 by e-raser.
