Character is unplayable
So I'm about 20 hours into my first modded playthrough, with Calamity and some standard QOL mods shown here. I just logged in today. I found myself unable to play as my main character. The name is displayed in gray, as shown, with a message labeled (Unknown Error). It also doesn't show the armor, health, or mana of my player, and I can't play on it. It worked perfect just last night, and I haven't touched my computer or its settings since. Relogging proved ineffective. Any idea as to why this is happening or how to fix it?

Tag: backups (Owner: jopojelly#0000)
If your world or player is failing to load, you can use the backups to roll back to an earlier working file. See https://github.com/tModLoader/tModLoader/wiki/Basic-tModLoader-Usage-Guide#world-and-player-backups for more information.

i have backups from every time I've played the world. the link above from the discord app only explained how to restore a world backup, and attempting to do the same for my player with the most recent two backups didn't work
The player backups are in
Documents\My Games\Terraria\tModLoader\Players\Backups
So just nab it there and paste the actual plr file in Documents\My Games\Terraria\tModLoader\Players
