Description of my issue:
Not all of my System Restore Points are showing up in Manage Backups > Restore Points and therefore I do not know how to restore from the one I need. The most recent appearing SRP was many hours ago and there was a SRP taken less than an hour ago. I've looked in administrator/components/akeeba/backup and the SRP is there with the correct time.

How do I access this SRP?

All system restore points taken with Akeeba Backup are shown in the page you mentioned. Please note that theremight be more than one pages of informaton. In this case the pagination controls are shown at the bottom of the page, below the list of system restore points.

Also note that if you have restored an older version of your site all system restore points taken after the backup you restored was taken are not shown. A system restore point consists of two different things: the system restore point archive and the system restore point database record. Without the database record there is no way to know which extension was backed up by the SRP feature. When restoring a site the records for newer SRPs are removed (otherwise it wouldn't be a restoration).

In this case what you have said is not taking place as their is no pagination at the bottom of the page and I have not restored the site. I have included a compilation screenshot that shows the complete SRP page plus Filezilla showing the most recent SRP that is not appearing within the SRP page.

This is an urgent matter.

Thank you for your help.

I have resolved the urgent matter on my site. Still, the SRP issue remains.

Thank you.

We are unable to reproduce this issue and we have received no similar reports in months. I honestly can't imagine what may be wrong other than what I already mentioned.
