There is no issue with transactions not being reconciled and having later transactions reconciled. What matters is did those transactions that are reconciled really clear the bank? Do they explain how you got from the opening balance to the ending balance?

That is all reconciliation is doing—answering that question.

Otherwise, as Maf. noted, yes, you can just change their flag as needed and re-reconcile as needed.

Reconciled on 06/02/23 - I believe they are all okay.
*Transaction on 18/02/2023 - should be recorded but is not. *
Reconciled 23/2/2023
Reconciled 28/2/2023
Reconciled 17/3/2023- last time reconciled.

I'm not sure how this mess happened, but I'm wondering the best way to
resolve it.

Can I simply unreconcile them in this order?

1) 17/3/2023,
2)  28/2/2023
3)  23/2/2023

To my knowledge, this is the first time I have managed to reconcile
transactions that should not have been, but that's the state I'm in.

Retrieving a backup is possible, but I have done a lot of work on
reconciling the PayPal account and picking up a couple of errors on PayPal
transactions, so I'd rather not use an earlier backup if possible. But if
that's the safest way, maybe I should.
