I have upload this plugin and now What I must do with box-Exclude spam comments and another box-Exclude post revisions? (fil in the box or not)?
I hope you understand about this below?!
#comments [ ] Exclude spam comments
#posts [ ]Exclude post revisions
Which one the best i choose?
Save Serve
Download to your computer
Email backup to
Thanks
I would exclude both…and download to your computer.
However, do realize this only backs up your database. The upgrade will overwrite ALL of the default source code…this is not a problem if you haven’t edited any of the default code, but if you have, then you may want to take a back-up of that as well. Here is a video to show you how to do a complete back-up before upgrading along with a few other tips before pressing the upgrade link.

Thanks Figaro for sharing the video
I would like to try it, but I hear that you said in your video about Cpanel
What is that?
If you don’t have Cpanel on your hosting account, just use your FTP client to do the file transfer part.
