You can use `restic mount` to mount a repository and browse and restore backed up files using your file browser GUI of choice. Works quite well.
I think many more people would use Restic if this was called out prominently on the home page.
I've known about Restic for years and would likely be using it by now had I realised that!
EDIT: Ah looks like it may not work on Windows. Part of the appeal of Restic, for me, would be being able to cover all of my Windows, Mac and Linux machines with the same system.
