Long Story Short: On a CM12(Nightly) Moto G(Falcon) that had to be thoroughly reformatted after an unexplained disaster, I'm trying to use a TWRP backup made earlier and ensconced on my computer to restore my phone. After using the backup function once to establish the filepath, I transfer the backup to the backups folder in TWRP and use the restore function. At first, it said that it was a f2fs backup or something, but after reformatting to match it just hangs when trying to restore the data folder(without a specific error), and throws a "Failed" message. Backup doesn't work, phone gets one step closer to being launched out the window. I've thoroughly reformatted everything, reflashed recovery, and double checked all the catches I know of(the backup is under 2.5 gb for instance).
I'm stumped. Should I give up at this point? Is the backup just gone(especially given that it's connected to how this all got started)? Is there nothing I can do with having captured all the folders onto my PC?

While fiddling around with Moto G 2013(falcon/xt1032) running CM12 Nightly this morning I decided I should take a backup with TWRP (which I had also specifically installed this morning because of rumors of it working with encryption). The moment after I rebooted from the (supposedly successful)backup, my phone got stuck in a nasty bootloop, would even reboot from attempting to start recovery half the time. After a lot of cursing and trial and error I successfully formatted everything and reinstalled TWRP, and that stopped.
I had even managed a mass evacuation of my files (simply dragging everything off with windows explorer) to my computer. This included that fateful backup that TWRP made, that didn't seem to be worse the wear. There are some things on here that I'd rather miss (especially since I just cleaned out my PC based backup program yesterday), so I'm trying to restore my phone from there.
