Restore Old Backup (2 years old)

Hey There,

You can try installing a previous/old version of Updraft and then restore your website with the backup you made, once your backup is restored just update the plugin to the latest version.

To get any old version of the plugin please click on the “Advanced View” under the plugin details section and then just go to the bottom of the page and select an old version that might work for you.

I am not the author of the plugin but Hope this helps

Hi,

What is the exact wording of the error message, please? I can’t guess what that would be, as, to my knowledge, there have never been incompatible changes in the backup format (and I ought to know!).

Sorry for the late reply but I am getting this error again due to old backup zip files, error messages I get with each zip file uploaded:
Upload error (code -200) : HTTP Error. (HTTP code: 403)
The file failed to upload. Please check the following:

– Any settings in your .htaccess or web.config file that affects the maximum upload or post size.
– The available memory on the server.
– That you are attempting to upload a zip file previously created by UpdraftPlus.

Further information may be found in the browser JavaScript console, and the server PHP error logs

@deepakkhasa where can I download previous versions of updraftplus?

Cheers guys!

Rather than trying one old version at a time, I would suggest you install WP Rollback Plugin. with this, you can install any previous version of a plugin. No need for manually downloading.

hop it helps
