Restore pihole settings when sd card is broken

[meyer]

The sd card in my raspberry pi is broken. i can’t boot that card. i’ve reinstalled raspberry pi os and pihole and what to restore the old config. There is a backup i made from the complete sd card a few weeks ago. What files do it need to restore to have the same settings on my new install?
