Did you see if you can access the CLI with local or remote credentials?

Also if you manage to get acces through CLI or console do "tmsh load sys config verify" and check if there is an error (warnings do not matter but errors do) and google the error if you see one.

    Licensing looks good from this end (from restored snapshot).
