I somehow had the exact same problem. Contacted those. support for Beguet. Here is the hosting specialist's full answer:
Hello! Please clarify, before making a backup, did you delete or rename the old version of the site in the public_html directory? If this is not done, the versions of the site may get mixed up. I am attaching instructions for restoring a site from a backup:
To save the current version and prevent mixing of site versions, rename the public_html folder (for example, to public_html_old). This can be done through the File Manager - this must be done if the malfunction appeared after changes in the site structure (for example, installing plugins or if the site was infected with viruses).
Restore the site to the date when it worked correctly:
go to the BackUp section:
select the “File archive” tab,
select the date in the “Select a copy” drop-down list
in the line with the site folder, click and confirm the restoration. The data will be queued for recovery.
If necessary, restore the MySQL database:
save the current state of the database through phpMyAdmin, which can be accessed through the MySQL section by clicking the button. Export instructions are available, for example, here.
then go to the Backup section,
select the “Databases” tab,
select the same date on which the site files were restored,
click and confirm the restoration.
For the site to work correctly, it is necessary that the dates of restoration of the site folder and the database match.
Please note that for the correct restoration of the site, a sufficient amount of free disk quota on the account is required.
When the data is restored, a notification will be sent to the contact e-mail about the successful completion of the process.
After restoring, clear the browser cache and check the site. If everything is correct, the public_html_old folder and the saved base dump can be deleted.
