A Full cPanel Backup creates a copy of your hosting account, including website files, databases, email accounts, and other account data.
Follow the Steps Below
- Log in to your cPanel account.
- Go to the Files section.
- Click Backup Wizard.
- Click Back Up.
- Select Full Backup.
- Under Backup Destination, select Home Directory.
- Enter your email address if you want to receive a notification when the backup is completed.
- Click Generate Backup.
- Wait for the backup process to complete.
- Return to the Full Backup page and click the generated backup file to download it to your computer.
Important
- Backup generation may take some time depending on the size of your hosting account.
- Do not close or modify your website while a large backup operation is running if avoidable.
- Download the completed backup to your local computer or external storage.
- Do not use your hosting account as permanent backup storage. Backup files stored on the server may be removed during scheduled cleanup.
- A Full cPanel Backup generally cannot be restored by the cPanel user through Backup Wizard as a complete account. Contact your hosting provider if a full-account restoration is required.
