    Hi,

    By default, UpdraftPlus stores your backup to the “wp-content/updraft” folder. Can you check if it is there?

    HI there
    Thanks for taking your time to reply back to me.
    I’ve checked, and there is NO folder “wp-content/updraft” left in my hard disk.
    Does Updrfat saves all the back up “within” the WordPress installation?
    If so, this woudl be totally absurd ,as there various “You tube” videos that explicity say , “…. go ahead and delete the whole WP installation, and only once you re install WP ” search for the back up and how can upload it.
    Does “Bitnami” on purpose forces Updraft to save the backups under their own WP installation?.
    Is this possible..?,…. As there is NO UPdraft folder sitting on its own in my hard disk.
    Can you clarify this please , as it is of utmaost importance and I will have to refer the matter directly to Bitnami ( even leaggly if need be), as I lost a lot of work.
    I shall wait to hear from you
    Many Thanks
    Regards
