 * I have more then 10 years experience in WP. Option for backup and wothout restore?
   Are you serious? This was a waste of my time.

 * Hello [@squallp](https://wordpress.org/support/users/squallp/) ,
 * You can of course restore your backups which were created with BackWPup Free.
   
   Full backups contain your entire WordPress install directory. Please take a look
   at our documentation to learn how to restore your backups. [https://backwpup.com/docs/how-to-restore-a-wordpress-backup/](https://backwpup.com/docs/how-to-restore-a-wordpress-backup/)
 * One-click restore directly from the WordPress backend and additional features
   including more destinations or premium support are available in BackWPup Pro.
   
   We will soon update our plugin FAQ to make this information clearer. Thanks for
   letting us know.
 * Kind regards,
    Niklas

 * I didn’t even notice this initially. If you want to restore anything, you need
   the PRO version… Interesting “business model” 😉

 * Sorry, I can’t edit my above post. I misunderstood the answer message and believed
   it implied you would need the pro version. You can actually restore manually 
   without paying for the pro version. The latter is for added convenience.
 * This is pretty great overall.
