Restore a backup when you need to roll the server back after a bad update, unwanted wipe, broken Workshop install, or accidental file edit. Restoring replaces current server files with the backup you select.

Restore A Backup

  1. Open your Space Engineers server in the control panel.
  2. Stop the server.
  3. Click Restore Backup from the left side menu.

If you are unsure which backup to restore, submit a support ticket before running the restore so we can help identify the safest restore point.
