It just saves the changed files with a timestamp in the filename, which is good enough for me manually to grab a few files when I'm in a pinch and the Windows System is down.
I also have a python script somewhere (downloaded from github) that would keep only the latest timestamp of each file and then remove the timestamp from the filename, so kind of like restoring the last backup in full or from a folder. And I could in reasonable time rewrite that to get out a specific timestamp etc, without needing to read the database and metadata files. I'm not planing to do that as the default restore method, but I'm confident to always be able to get all data I need out of the backup without _ANY_ client software.
You can restore to any Windows instance, so to a fresh install, another computer etc.
