Moodle Restore fails with "Trying to restore user xxx from backup file will cause conflict"

I am planning an upgrade of our Moodle 2.13 (running on Xampp+Windows). So I did a fresh 2.1.3 install (Xampp+Windows) on another box. I was able to restore the entire site, along with users into this installation from  a production site backup few weeks ago.

I deleted a course (Course A) in test installation. Now I want to restore this course and hence I made a backup of Course A from the production server, including user data.  Now, when I try to restore this course as a new course in the test installation it gives  me errors, "Trying to restore user xxx from backup file will cause conflict" for all users enrolled in that course. I checked users.xml file in the backup  for any descrepencies in email addresses (I did check only 3-4 records, for which users the above error message appeared). The email addresses are indentical.   This is driving me  nuts as I need to get this sorted as soon as possible.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks and Regards
