"Access denied" trying to restore files from backup

I've got Windows Server Backup on Server 2012 R2, and it's run flawlessly for years.

Last week I copied a folder from another computer to the server, and modified permissions on it so that only 2 users had access to it (a user, and the Administrator).

When I tried a test recovery from the nightly backup (Windows Server Backup), I suddenly cannot browse ANY previous day's backup, even prior to the new folder existing.  When I expand the server name, I now just get:

"Unable to browse System Reserved. Access is denied" and
"Unable to browse Local disk (C:). Access is denied

These errors only showed up after adding the user folder last week, and modifying its permissions.

Once I saw that error, I went back to the permissions on the new folder and added the user "SYSTEM", with full permissions.  But it has made no difference.

Has anyone ever seen this before?

Thanks

Dave
