The  proper  way to restore a backup is placing the backup file on the
new  system,  install  TB  and on the first run you tell TB to restore
from backup. After the restore you close TB and restart it.
That way even the registry settings should be restored

Yes, the only things that won't be preserved this way are the registry
settings like window size and placement.
