The same way as when you're restoring them with a public release.

As  has  been  mention  before  on  this list, the current betas use a
different  message  base  format,  so  restoring a backup with the old
message base format won't work.

You should try this:
Uninstall TB
Check in the registry whether the all TB stuff is gone, you'll find it at:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\RIT
Install 4.0.38
Restore your backup
Extract the executable of 4.0.39.39 on top of 4.0.38
