Tumbleweed restore did NOT fix my problem!

Very confused! So I did a clonezilla partition backup before I applied those 2700+ updates, which I assumed was the beginning of my OpenSUSE problems. Partition restore went well. Sure enough, as expected after restore, Tumbleweed started telling me I needed to apply 2700+ updates after the restore. Except VS Code is still giving me the same error. WTH? Also why did I have to reinstall KeyPass? It should have been there with the partition restore. It’s an essential program that I always install right away. Where did it go?
