This is a little bit complicated. I'm using Microsoft SQL 2005, but I was able to find a link that will answer your question. I hope this will help you out. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/backup-restore/restore-a-database-backup-using-ssms Just follow each step carefully and you will be able to restore your backup without any problems.

First open SQL Server 2008 and authenticate. Then in the left pane i.e. Object Explorer, right click on Databases. From the contextual menu click on Restore Database. A new window will pop-up. Enter the name of the database in the To Database field. Now choose From Device below and proceed. Now it will ask you to specify Backup. Click on Add. Now locate the backup file from your computer and click ok. Select it from the checkbox and it will be restored.
