Why can't TWRP see the Data partion to restore from backup?

TWRP cannot see Data partion to restore from backup

I am trying to restore my Nexus 5 from a backup taken in TWRP (Kit Kat) reverting from Lollipop. I flashed the Kit Kat factory image and then went to restore the TWRP backup I made before upgrading to Lollipop. TWRP can see the backup but when I go to restore it can see all the partitions except the Data? I have confirmed that the data files are in the backup folder.

It does the same for the other older backup of the phone I have? No idea why this is happening..........

Any help appreciated.

Regards, Jon

Re: TWRP cannot see Data partion to restore from backup

Are you using the same version of TWRP? Say if your backup was version 2.1 and you are now using version 2.0?
