Once I was trying to restore MSSQL .bak file in another instance and it was causing error.

Summarized Error:
5(error not found)

Answer:

If you want to restore a .bak file
In [General] tab
step 1: Type in the name
step 2: mark which one to restore
then [Options]
step 1: Use the browse option to change the file name for both backup and log

hit Enter.

Viola! It will work perfectly.
