Unable to restore backup

  • Hi there,

    I performed a backup of my clients entire site (database and files) using the WP Complete Backup app and I am currently trying to restore this using the same app, however, I get an error saying that the restoration failed due the backup is not a valid backup file.

    Can I send this to WP support to be checked as I do not know what is wrong with it? I believe WP complete backup wants a zip file, however, the backup was saved with the file extension zip.yLccj5 and renaming it to .zip does nothing even if I try and open it in WinRAR (says it is corrupt).

    If the backup is corrupt or incomplete I made a copy of all the WP files so can I just copy these onto the new server instead?

    WP newbie, sorry

    Tom ??
