Which path i must write ? The same of db1 ?

Andrew can you attach the job log to your post so I can look into it further?
If this response answers your concern, please mark it as a "solution"
When you redirect the job on "Microsoft SQL Redirecttion" under Destination on the right pane uncheck "Database" option after on "destination options" select an alternative drive Like a D: drive and check "even whe the original drive does not exist"

You should have SQL installed on the server you are restoring the database because the backup is application aware backup.

ok
can i restore in same Sql Server in a new db with an another name ?
Yes
You can restore in the same SQL server with different DB name. For that I have already given the steps above with snaps.
Please check and confirm. If this remedy worked for you Kindly mark it as a SOLUTION
Yes , that is possible
Note: If this post provides you with a solution don't forget to mark the discussion as solved.
ok but the path can i setup must be in the Sql Server ?
Or is not necessary because restore the db in an another db name ?
Yes the path must be in SQL server only not on any other server. You can restore it on any drive but that shold be local to the SQL server only.
Restoring DB to another name is up to you. In one instance you can create multiple databases. So you can define that DB name during the restoration.
