How do I restore my files from the ‘Restore’ folder?

This article will show you how to restore your backup from the 'Restore' folder within your hosting package.

If a backup has been restored to your hosting webspace, it will have been placed in a folder titled ‘Restored’ within your files. After verifying these restored files, you will need to replace your existing ‘public_html’ folder with the one within the ‘Restored’ folder.

To access and restore these files, simply follow the instructions outlined below.

Step 1 of 8

Start by accessing File Manager for your hosting package.

 

Step 2 of 8

From here, double-click the folder public_html to open it.

 

Step 3 of 8

Empty the contents of your public_html folder by clicking Select All in the toolbar, followed by Delete.

 

Step 4 of 8

Next, return to the main directory by clicking Back in the toolbar.

 

Step 5 of 8

Double-click the Restored folder, followed by public_html.

 

Step 6 of 8

Click Select all in the toolbar.

From there, right-click your selection and choose Move from the drop-down menu.

 

Step 7 of 8

A pop-up window will now appear, asking where you want to move this folder to.

Enter public_html into the provided field and then click Move File(s).

 

Step 8 of 8

Your restored files should now be in the place of the original ‘public_html’ folder. When you navigate to the domain, these files will be the ones that are loaded.
