@tisaty4m: did you clear your browser's cache or try CTRL+F5? I will query the developer as he has an RT-AX89U.
I tried. And I think it's not a browser error.
If I need to upload settings, I install an old firmware. For example, February 2025. And upload config. Then install the new firmware.

works for me. no issue. your screenshot doesnt show that its not working, it only shows that you created the backup with a older version and the router name has changed in the backup. there is a force option in the restore gui to override the router name check _________________ "So you tried to use the computer and it started smoking?

I think he's referring to the fact that he doesn't have Backup or Restore buttons in the WebUI. But you're saying it's working for you, so obviously you have those buttons.
Since nobody else has reported this issue except for @tisaty4m, I would guess he needs a factory reset and manual reconfigure from scratch.
Have you tried that @tisaty4m ? _________________ - Linksys EA8500: I-Gateway, WAP/VAP 5ghz only. Features: VLANs, Samba, WG, Entware - r60xxx
