    I’m a new user. BackUpWordPress seems to complete and sends an email with attachment to my address. But the backup location wp-content/backups does not exist and if I create it, the backup file is not placed in it. I did find a zip file in wp-content/uploads/backupwordpress-b4f7003c18-backups/. Has the backup location changed or is something failing?

    wp-content/backups does not exist for me either. I am unsure which is the correct file to use for backup. Can you assist me with What sort of file name should i expect to find that needs to be copied and unzipped?

    I can’t say if the path name has changed across versions, but I can definitely say that the default path would be something like backupwordpress-{random-text}-backups
    (Reference – function hmbkp_path_default within backupwordpress\functions\core.php)

    This folder would contain the archived version of your backup (depending upon the options you have set)
