Julian, I don’t know what you’ve tried yet, but I’ve restored successfully a number of times. I do the backup of the VM folder with all VM’s off and the VBox manager closed. I found out the hard way trying to backup or restore with anything of VBox open is a disaster. With everything closed I can restore by copying the backup over the original and then restart VBox and everything works. I’ll have to think about how I recovered when I had a situation like you have, but you might try closing everything about VBox down and then copying the backup to the original. I might just work.
