Try restore bareos database from archive file, or use bareos bootstrap file to restore all files from single archive job.

Potential differences:
bareos instead of bacula
my version is 5 (bacula 7 is current; I'm not certain if it has usable Win
client though - didn't check lately).
If I were to speculate I would say that what you see may come from "too
much work" done on client side, like packing whole directories ("folders"
as I should have used MS windows language), and sending the whole thing to
backup server, but I most likely will be wrong about that as: the stuff
that walks you trough directory tree comes from database, which is filled
I bet by director (receiving infor. from fd), no matter that files are
being sent by fd to sd. Anyway, I would try to remove compression wherever
it is configured and see if that makes any difference.
But you probably need bareos _expert_, not just bacula _user_ to find the
solution.
Incidentally, what happens if you request to restore all ("add all" will
be the only command you need, then say "done").
Good luck!

My case may be irrelevant as what I have is: server: FreeBSD 9.3, bacula
5, still here is what I have on the server side for Windows 7 client:
bconsole
restore
5
[here I chose the client]
...
You are now entering file selection mode where you add (mark) and
remove (unmark) files to be restored. No files are initially added, unless
you used the "all" keyword on the command line.
Enter "done" to leave this mode.
cwd is: /
cd C:/Users/[username]/Documents
dir
...
C:/Users/[username]/Documents/Visual Studio 2005/
...
dir "Visual Studio 2005"
drwxrwxrwx 1 root wheel 0 2015-06-03 11:55:12
C:/Users/[username]/Documents/Visual Studio 2005/
[looks like it doesn't like to show the content, but if I enter there,
I'll see stuff there, so now I just will add it to restore]
add "Visual Studio 2005"
4 files marked.
done
...
7 files selected to be restored.
...
So, in my case the files are there. What happens it you use "add" command
to add directory containing the fires you need to restore?
Thanks.
