How to recover files from an iPhone backup without restoring to an iPhone? I have a backup file of an iPhone that was backed up to a Mac. It was not an iCloud backup. 

Is there a way to browse that backup on the Mac and recover selected photos, etc.? (Without restoring it to another iPhone.) 

The backup is encrypted, and I know the password.
The backup is of an iPhone 5s.
iExplorer, which runs on macOS and Windows, can open iPhone backups. You need to know the password if the backup has been encrypted.
