Posted by developer: Marking this as a feature request. The ability to --force the backup should be present in Workbench.

Description: The MySQL Enterprise Restore wizard is failing to restore my backup. Ultimately it says: " mysqlbackup: ERROR: The datadir exists and is not empty. Use the "--force" option, if you want to overwrite the datadir on your own risk. mysqlbackup failed with errors! mysqlbackup copy-back-and-apply-log exited with status 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 6.3\workbench\wizard_progress_page_widget.py", line 180, in thread_work self.func() File "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Workbench 6.3\modules\wba_meb\wb_admin_meb_restore.py", line 622, in restore raise RuntimeError("Backup recovery failed") RuntimeError: Backup recovery failed ERROR: Recover backup: Backup recovery failed Failed " This despite agreeing that this will happen at the "Restore Backup" popup that says: " Restore Backup Restore MySQL backup to datadir C:\ProgramData\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.6\Data\' This will restore the server to the state it was when the backup was made. Any changes from after the backup will be lost. " So, I expect it to --force the backup, or at least provide an option to do so. How to repeat: 1. Create full backup 2. Restore 3. Choose "Restore based on Backup Profile configured on this server" 4. Choose a full backup profile, I had "Use most recent backup" checked 5. Next 6. Restore 7. Restore at popup to continue 8. Notice the failure, as stated in the logs I am using Workbench 6.3.4 build 829 64-bits, Windows 8.1, MySQL server 5.6.25 -- all commercial products -- on a VM Suggested fix: Use --force if we click "Restore" at step 7 above?
