ARGHHHHHH!
I just restored my mint install and the restore is not working. I thought I archived it with it working. What it is doing: I login with my preferred user and enter my password and the screen blanks like it is loading the user and then it goes back to the login screen. (like before) I fixed this problem before but don't remember how I did it.
