Backup Buddy is supposed to use the default Backup directory for the
current synch's backup, and then its own for archival/history of recent
backups (up to your defined limit).  Those are stored in BackupBuddy's
proprietary compression and are thus inaccessible on their own.

I don't want to reinstall from a prior backup, I want to restore from
the current backup.

And then once I restore the one or two I want to do first, the rest of
the backup isn't valid anymore because it's now a different backup, and
will keep being pushed back with every step.

Really, about the only thing I keep BackupBuddy around for now is to
back up the card.
