# Should backup WP files

 * I know what it says but I feel this should be a core feature of this plugin. 
   I’m looking for a way to backup a site for the sole purpose of restoring a site
   should something go wrong with an update that will allow me to _quickly_ restore
   the site. Downloading an older version of WP and FTPing it to the site is not
   something that can be done “quickly” in order to restore a site that has crashed,
   as happened when I updated a site to WP 5.5.
 * This really isn’t a request for support, just wanted to voice an opinion about
   not having this feature.
