Restored the wrong backup – now I need to go back

    I created a backup of the site just now. Then, I restored a previous backup. That backup is no good, so I need to restore the site to how it just was. The problem is, this new backup is not displaying in the list of existing backups. The backup files are all there on the server, and I have downloaded them, including the DB. Before I go unzipping my files and importing my DB manually, is there anything I can do to get the plugin to recognize this newly-created backup and restore it automatically?

    Hi,

    Make sure that the backups are in the “wp-content/updraft” folder. Then click on the “rescan local storage” link in the “Backup/Restore” tab to update the backup list.

    I did that, no luck. What I ended up doing was just reinstalling WordPress and uploading the files. Then, they were recognized. It seems odd that it had to come to that, though. I did an all-in-one migration (plugin) restore earlier, but cancelled half way through it. Maybe that had something to do with it.
