 * Why it is not possible to get into root folder? This makes the plugin way less
   useful.

 * Hi [@forusak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/forusak/),
 * With the upcoming update, you will be able to select the root folder.
 * Please note that, all core files and the wp-config.php will be filtered out since
   modifying those can break the site and our File Recovery Wizard will not be able
   to recover them.
 * The pro version will have a new option “Advanced Mode” where we lift all restrictions,
   and you will be able to edit core files at your own risk. File backups will still
   work normally, however, if you do break the site, you will need to manually recover
   them via FTP.
 * Hope this helps
