• Halloween is coming! To celebrate the occasion, we dusted off a couple of old skins, and even created a brand new one (Pixel).
    To get into the festive spirit, install the Skins extension.
  • The new Python extension is now available. It allows customers to deploy and manage WSGI-based Python applications on their websites directly from Plesk.
  • The Plesk Mobile apps for iOS and Android and the Plesk Mobile Center extension have been deprecated, and are no longer available for new installations. In Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84, the Plesk Mobile Center extension will be removed from servers during the upgrade, and the Plesk Mobile apps will lose their server management features.
  • The Social Login extension has been deprecated and will be removed in Plesk Obsidian 18.0.84. After that, it will no longer be possible to log in to Plesk with a Google, Facebook, GitHub account, or with a passkey. Plesk usernames and passwords, as well as logging in with a WebPros Account, are not affected.

Question About Servers Folder

Guest
In my C:\Inetpub\vhosts folder there is a folder called Servers. I have no idea what this folder is for as I don't think it has anything to do with the hosting but it looks like it contains copies of every site I have in it. Needless to say, this is taking up alot of space and causing the websites to take up about 5x the space from all the copies it is placing in here, my question is, what is this folder for? Do I need it or is it safe to delete? How do I disable whatever is filling up this folder with stuff to prevent it from taking up so much room again?

Thanks in advance.
 
Ok nevermind, I found out they are symbolic links for FTP, I guess I just need to exclude this directory from backups to prevent this large increase in the backup size.
 
MarshallT,

Please do nothing with folder C:\Inetpub\vhosts\Servers and its sub-folders. As you mentioned this are symbolic links and Plesk does not backup it.
