 * I had a site hosted by a hosting company. I used Updraft Plus to backup site 
   to dropbox. I then setup a self hosted version on my computer. I deleted the 
   original install and site. I now want to restore the backup copy to the self 
   hosted site. Added Updraft Plus to new site but when I try and run it I have 
   no option to restore and in the cloud backup backup service drop down dropbox
   isn’t even offered.
    Can anyone help? Thanks

 * Can you send a screenshot of that please? (Use [http://snag.gy](http://snag.gy)
   if it helps). It sounds very odd (there’s never been a UD release without Dropbox–
   so it sounds like perhaps UD is not fully installed).
 * Are you sure you’ve not installed “Updraft” instead of UpdraftPlus?

    Thank you for your reply. You were correct about the wrong plugin. I did
   indeed install Updraft and it looks similar, my bad.
 * Thank you again for the help, it restored fine.
