  2. Choose a backupOpen the menu next to the backup → “Restore”.
  3. Start it againWhen it's done, check the console and start the server.
⚠️

Restoring overwrites filesMake a fresh backup of the current state first if you might still need anything from it.

Local copy

You can download any backup to your computer. Before major changes (version upgrade, new modpack) it's worth keeping a copy outside the hosting too.
