How to restore security snapshots?

Elastic Stack Elasticsearch

Hi Guys.
I upgraded my ELK stack version 7.16.2 to 8.4.2.
I need to restore my security settings (users, roles,...)

In the last step of restoring I got this message:

Unable to restore snapshot

[es.sec_daily_2022.09.30-alo__ygmqiulyt8o8qjqua/hCHPz3VBQdKHAsOBtFPmig] cannot restore index [.security-7] because an open index with same name already exists in the cluster. Either close or delete the existing index or restore the index under a different name by providing a renaming pattern and replacement name

I can't delete or close exciting .security-7 index.
the main question is how to restore the security index while this message comes back?/
