Source drive only option as drive to restore to

Thread needs solution

I have a desktop computer with Win 10 on a 1TB Samsung SSD. I backed it up 4 times with Acronis 2020 before losing things to a black screen bootup (probably a lousy Nvidia update). Unfortunately I hadn't set any Win restore points, so retrieving one of the previous backups is essential. The problem is that after the backup to recover is selected, the only  destination shown for it is the drive on which the backups are stored (a WD Elements 25A3), not the Samsung SSD (which is shown, but greyed out). I've been working on this for months, so I'd be grateful for any suggestions.

Pat, did you create a Recovery Media version of True Image? Are you using that in your recovery attempt?
