Looking for a GUI way to browse through my backups, find a specific file in a specific folder and restore that.

No, I don't want to restore something to a folder that might not even exist anymore. I don't want to recover an entire directory structure. Just give me a hierarchical file view where I can pick something and restore it to a folder of my choosing. And I don't want to use the terminal to do this.

There must be something obvious I'm missing.

All I want is to open a backup set, browse to file.name, select it and pull it out of the backup into a directory of my choosing. Basic stuff.

Saw Timeshift on a Mint machine, might give it a try. That means years worth of backups are less than useful.
