🔍 Check if your hosting provider has JetBackup enabled and maintains backups for your account.

❌ 2. Restore Failed?

✔️ Ensure you have enough disk space available in your hosting account. ✔️ Try restoring an earlier backup date if the latest one does not work.

❌ 3. Website Not Working After Restore?

✔️ Clear browser cache or use incognito mode to see updates. ✔️ Check file permissions (644 for files, 755 for directories). ✔️ If restoring a database, verify database credentials in your configuration file (wp-config.php, config.php, etc.).

🌟 Best Practices for Backup & Restore

✔️ Backup Before Restoring – If possible, download a current backup before performing a restore. ✔️ Use Incremental Backups – Saves time and space by restoring only changed data. ✔️ Verify Data After Restore – Ensure your files, databases, and emails are working properly. ✔️ Schedule Regular Backups – Automatic backups protect against unexpected data loss.
