Good evening, is it possible with kickstart to do only a database restore? I couldn't find it. Thanks!

You can kinda do that. I assume you have a full site backup.
First, use Kickstart to extract the backup archive on your local computer, or a subdomain, or basically anywhere except your site.
Copy the entire installation folder into your site, nothing else.
Go to your site's /installation URL and proceed with the restoration. Once the database restoration is over, close the browser window and delete the installation folder.

Thank you Nicholas. It is not possible I asume to only extract the full database to one SQL file?
