本文将指导您如何将应用程序的备份（Web 文件和数据库）从 Web 应用程序的本地备份目录下载到本地计算机。本地备份也称为现场备份

**如何下载应用程序的备份**
以下是将备份下载到本地计算机的几个简单步骤

**步骤1**
首先，您需要启用
Cloudways 平台的*本地备份*功能，因此**登录**您的**Cloudways 平台**并单击顶部菜单栏中的**服务器选项卡**并选择您的目标服务器

**第2步**
点击
**备份 **首先从左侧菜单栏中选择

切换到
本地备份。激活此选项将在 Cloudways 服务器上部署的目标应用程序的 local_backups 目录中创建应用程序备份（Web 文件和数据库）的本地副本

然后，打
保存更改

[可选] 点击
如果您想立即获得本地备份，请立即备份。否则，将在与标准自动备份相同的时间和频率创建本地备份

**步骤# 3**
现在，您需要通过 SFTP 连接到您的服务器，以便您可以将备份文件从服务器下载到本地计算机

**提示
如果您想知道什么是 SFTP 以及为什么使用它，请单击此处查找。在此示例中，我们使用 Master Credentials 远程访问服务器

通过 SFTP 成功连接服务器后，您将看到这样的屏幕

然后，转到以下路径并将备份文件从服务器拖放到本地计算机

/应用程序//local_backups
**Tip
Your application's name is available under the application settings

Only the last backup will be available locally. For example, if you took a backup at 4:00 PM and then again at 4:35 PM, only the 4:35 PM backup will be available for download. The off-site backup feature will continue to work as usual at the set frequency and instructions

**How to Remove the Local Backups**
If you would like to remove local backups, then you can click on the
**trash as shown below. **Important**
This is just the on-site backup stored on the server. Your automated off-site backups will remain unaffected, as well as the regularly scheduled backups you have configured
