When I try to recover a single file from the backup, it creates an unformatted file

sudo duplicity --file-to-restore prueba2.txt file:///copia ~/escritorio/

the command works but returns the following file with no extension

I tried another syntax but still dont work

right, that is not well documented but correct.

if you give a file, not a folder to --file-to-restore the restore target will be interpreted as such. meaning

duplicity --file-to-restore prueba2.txt file:///copia ~/escritorio/ will restore as a file called ~/escritorio ignoring the trailing slash possibly overwriting an existing folder by that name (if empty or --force is given).

duplicity --file-to-restore folder/folder2 file:///copia ~/escritorio/ will restore as a folder called ~/escritorio overwriting an exisiting folder by that name (if empty or --force is given).
