# Restore your whole hosting account from a backup

Restore your whole hosting account to how it was on an earlier day. The website, the databases and all email go back to that same day.

## Right guide?

- On Prime or Ultra and only want to restore a file, a database or a mailbox?

## Faster: let an AI app do it

If you’ve connected Inleed to an AI app, just write what you want done, for example:

> Restore the whole hosting for example.se to yesterday’s backup

The app prepares the restore. You approve it in the client area.

## Before you start

- Save your own copy of anything you want to keep first, for example new emails or files.

## How to restore

1. Log in to the [client area](https://login.inleed.net) and click **Manage** next to your hosting.

   Your hosting’s page opens.

2. Open the **Backups** tab.

   The backups are listed by date.

**Important:** Everything is replaced: the website, the databases and all email. Emails that arrived after that day are lost.

3. Pick the day you want to go back to and click **Restore**.

## How to know it worked

Your hosting is back to how it was that day.

**Waiting time:** The restore takes minutes, and up to hours for large accounts. Meanwhile your hosting may be unavailable.

## If something doesn’t work

### Settings have changed after the restore

**Why:** PHP settings and **Secure SSL** may have gone back to how they were that day.

**What to do:** Check them in DirectAdmin and turn them on again if needed.

### The restore fails

**Why:** The disk space is full, or the hosting is suspended.

**What to do:** Free up space and try again. If the hosting is suspended, contact [support](mailto:support@inleed.se).

## Good to know

- Backups are kept for 7 days on Standard and Special.
- On Standard and Special you can’t restore only one website or database, neither yourself nor through support.
