OK so without the use of TWRP, how is everyone creating nandroid backups? Creating a backup with adb via computer, will that work just the same???

Hi i need help ASAP,
I backed up my phone with CWM it made a folder as a backup.
When I tried to restore the backup I navigated to the folder and it showed me inside that folder (like there are no files) instaed of starting the backup procces.
one more problem is that now i flashed another ROM with TWR and I didn't know it will be with TWR so I am not sure I can backup CWM with it.
please refer to my 2 questions as it combined.
Can you clarify if CWM is able to restore the Backup ? If its not, then the backup was not made successfully.
To your Question, are you saying you flashed TWRP Recovery and then flashed the new Rom ? If that's the case then the CWM backup can't be restored by TWRP.
EDIT - I should caution you that it is not a good idea to restore the backup made by one Recovery with another.
I have Online Nandroid Backup and TWRP 2.8.0.0 installed on my OnePlus One (CM 11S 25R). The phone is encrypted, and I have made daily nandroid backups. Now I need to do a full restore from one of those backups, but when I boot into recovery, TWRP doesn't find the backups and doesn't recognize internal storage (it says 0 MB). So it seems TWRP can't recognize my encrypted partitions. How can I restore my full nandroid backup?
Do I need to do it from a computer somehow? Do I need to wipe something first?
I am a newbie.
Thanks
I have TWRP 3.2.3.0 running with Xiaomi Mi5. I had created a data backup with a rom I do not anymore use, but it contains an app’s data I want to recover.
Is there a way to parse the twrp backup files with a tool (PC perhaps) to extract the specific folder from the data and restore it?
Or, is there a tool that can read the twrp backup and partially restore the selected app data?
Thanks
Hello all, I had some TWRP questions that I have not been able to find the answer to because of the way that the question is worded, many other answers are coming up.
1) Can you restore a TWRP Nandroid backup to a device which has no external storage? Can you partition through TWRP and make a separate storage so you can put files there to restore and flash?
2) When creating a Nandroid backup, I usually select everything to be safe. What do you really actually need?
3) When restoring a Nandroid backup, what do you need to get back to the point when you took the backup? System, and Data? Or System Image? Or all 3? etc...
4) I have been trying for the last hour to restore my phone, but after the Nandroid Restore it is stuck in a boot loop, why could this be happening? I have all required restoration files from my Nandroid backup.

Twrp
A backup created by TWRP can only get restored by TWRP.
