Restore my site using Website Security and Backups
After your backup has completed successfully, you can restore your site files or database from the Website Security and Backups dashboard.
Warning: Before performing a restore, make sure you don't need any data from the current version of your site. Restoring a backup permanently overwrites your current data, and this action can't be undone.
- Go to your GoDaddy product page.
- Next to Website Security and Backups, select Manage All.
- For the site you want to restore, under Backups, select Details.
- In the calendar, select a desired backup date, and then select Restore Backup. If you have multiple backups on the same day, choose the desired backup by selecting it from the dropdown list.
- Select one or both of Restore files and Restore database.
- Select Continue.
A success message will confirm that your site has been restored from the backup. If the restore process fails, please open a support ticket for further assistance.
Note: After restoring, please be sure to clear the cache on the hosting server and firewall. This will ensure that you see the updated content on the website after the restore process.
