After clicking, the software will pop up a file dialog box. Find your backup file and open it. The backup file is usually a compressed file in .zip format, which can be generated automatically by the auto backup function or by clicking the "Export Library as a Zip file" menu item in the above picture.

The "Export Library as a Zip file" menu item in the above picture can export the current library as a backup file (a compressed file in .zip format), which can be considered as the opposite operation of Restore Library from a Zip file .
