After Windows Recovery Tool can't restore 8.1 backups

I installed 10149 and subsequently reverted using WRT on AT&T 1520. During setup, when the backup options were presented there was only one available - it was from 10149. ALL of my prior 8.1 backups were gone. There were several from 2014 and prior, but no 8.1 backups at all.

Anybody have this issue?

Yes, just had this horrible realisation myself!!!

Went from 8.1 and happy to 10 and impressed, bit buggy but ok, but then got buggier ending up with my alarm not going off this morning. Rolled back to 8.1 and then discovered to my horror that I have no 8.1 backups available.
