  • The BIND DNS server has already been deprecated and removed from Plesk for Windows.
    If a Plesk for Windows server is still using BIND, the upgrade to Plesk Obsidian 18.0.70 will be unavailable until the administrator switches the DNS server to Microsoft DNS. We strongly recommend transitioning to Microsoft DNS within the next 6 weeks, before the Plesk 18.0.70 release.
  • The Horde component is removed from Plesk Installer. We recommend switching to another webmail software supported in Plesk.

Question Just ran a restore from Plesk backup manager

R

Richard Follett

Basic Pleskian
When I ran the restore I presumed all the files on the server would be deleted and replaced with backup versions. BUT I see new folders (that I created after the backup timestamp) are still there? So does it just overwrite existing files?

Should I have deleted all the existing files before I ran the restore??
 
I noticed a folder that I added was still there after restore - I was expecting the whole server to be replaced? Does it overwrite existing files and leave new ones alone?
