i’d like to restore a 2 years old WP backup on localhost. How can i figure out which WP version has been used back then? I figure it might cause trouble using the latest install with a database this old.

Unzip the backup and look at the wp-include/version.php file if there are files included in the backup.

If only the database is included, there should be a value in the options table for “db_version”. At https://codex.wordpress.org/WordPress_Versions you can check which WordPress version this value corresponds to.
