The panel creates dated server archives that can be selected later through Restore Backup. Stop the service first so the world files are not changing while they are copied.

  1. Stop the server and click Backup Server.

  2. Wait for the task to finish. Open Restore Backup and make sure the dated archive appears in the selector.
  3. To restore it, keep the server stopped, select the required archive, tick Are you sure? and click Execute.

  4. Wait for the restore task to finish, then start the server and check the world.
Configuration needs a separate copy: testing confirmed that the panel restore did not replace Saved/Config/WindowsServer/SandboxSettings.ini or Saved/SaveGames/Server/Admin.ini. Download both files through FTP before changes and upload them separately when you need to restore those settings.
