Recover files from archived backup without OSSupport

My XPS 9550 locked up a few weeks ago and the ONLY thing I could get the OS Support tool to successfully do was backup my files and libraries. So, I have the archive file, but when I try to us OS Support to do the restore, it fails.

Ive been able to install a new clean version of windows, but can’t retrieve my files from the archive on my removable hard drive.

What can I do at this point? My files contained many critical financial and career search docs!!!

See this user's guide for steps to restore your files  https://www.dell.com/support/manuals/en-us/support-assist-os-recovery/saosrug/restore-data-after-resetting-your-computer-to-factory-state?guid=guid-3e6bc1e0-5910-4040-beec-0baa8b82fc4b&lang=en-us

Besides backup methods using external storage media, Windows Backup System is more reliable by using cloud base to store one of your backup.
