I'm using Omv6 in Windows VMware workstation
Can't you just do snapshots?
Or make a backup of the virtual disk if that is not possible? In that case I would switch to KVM

Thank you very much, that's a viable workaround

Yes, I had a very similar experience just few days ago. I restored grubparts and fsa files to a fresh USB stick (identical to the one I use as OMV 6 system disk). After reboot I got to the same state as in your post.
What "solved" the problem for me was running grub-install for the new USB stick. I thought copying grubparts file with dd would do the same job, but somehow it did not... Could more experienced people of advise on this?

Running grub-install is the best way to fix this.

Is grub-install a required step in restoration from any backup created by the plugin? Or is it only necessary because something went wrong with backup/restore of grubparts file in my specific case?

if you aren't using ddfull, there is a chance the grubparts isn't perfect for some systems. I would plan on doing a grub-install if not using ddfull. If it works without it, great.

Thank you for clarifying this!
It would be useful to add such a note to the otherwise nice tutorial by auanasgheps[How-To] Restore OMV system backup made with openmediavault-backup plugin
