  4. Wait for the restore to finish, then start the server again.

If the backup you need is not listed, submit a support ticket and we can check what backups are available.

Before restoring

Restoring a backup overwrites the current server files. If there is anything from the current state you may need later, create or download a fresh copy before starting the restore.

After restoring

Start the server and check the console for errors before inviting players back. If you restored because of a mod or configuration issue, confirm the server works before applying the same change again.
