Upload failed; turned out good!

I helped my student to archive web page with All In One WP migraton plugin 6 months ago (bit over 512mb .wpress file) and deleted the original web.

When she wanted to restore web from backup file, it didn’t work – changed upload limits and all sorts of limits, upload was always successful but always stayed idle in “Validating files” or smth.

Only solution would be paid version (and as I read from this forum 1-star ratings, seemed that there’s no hope). BUT – support answered quickly and they suggested traktor.servmask.com (to upload my .wpress file) – then I discovered that I had done Updraftplus copies and got to download these copies from the file very easily. And if I wouldn’t, support would have helped me forward and I would have anyhow gotten database file and uploads folder etc from that file.

And it was all “free version” of the plugin, didn’t pay anything for plugin or for support – thanks!
