Create a Backup File

Note: Backups are always complete system backups. Restores can be complete or partial depending on your selection.

  1. Choose Maintenance > Backup/Restore. The Backup/Restore page opens.

  2. Click Backup. A File Download dialog appears that contains an Open button. Do not click Open.

    In IE 7 (and later), IE is used as the default application to open files, so you are prompted to open the file versus save the file. To avoid this, you must change the default application that is used to open files to WordPad®.

  3. To do this:
    1. Save the backup file. The backup file is saved locally on your client machine with the name and location specified.
    2. Once saved, locate the file and right-click on it. Select properties.
    3. In general tab, click Change and select WordPad.
