Flashing / Reading taking long?

I was looking for the information how to upload the backup again. Is it normal that the console is showing so many dots and it takes quit long to do the first step extracting the data ?

Looks like it was the wrong command.

The correct command for my backup was:

cc3200tool -p COM7 write_all_files ./backup write_flash backup.bin

Please don’t use the file based backup to restore your box.
You should only restore single files you really want to revert. Some files will prevent the box from working otherwise.
As alternative only write the full flash based backup.

I don’t really understand, you are writing about restoring, but then “extracting data”.
Reading and writing backups can take time
