What is Wordpress Backup?

Project Backup - Wordpress Backup is an on-premise Windows desktop utility engineered to back up complete WordPress installations directly to local storage, external USB drives, or network-attached storage (NAS/SMB).

Unlike traditional WordPress backup plugins that run on the hosting server and consume CPU/RAM, this software operates externally from a Windows PC. It connects remotely via FTP/SFTP and MySQL/MariaDB to download website files and database dumps, packaging them into encrypted ZIP archives.

Key Features:

  • External & Crash-Proof: Runs independently of WordPress. If a website experiences a 500 internal server error, PHP crash, or malware infection, backups remain accessible on local storage.
  • Complete Backups: Archives both web directory files via FTP and database dumps (MySQL/MariaDB).
  • One-Click Restore: Built-in automated extraction and restoration of files and database structures.
  • Zero-Cloud & 100% On-Premise: No telemetry, third-party cloud dependencies, or web dashboards. Sensitive credentials remain encrypted locally.
  • Flexible Scheduling & Retention: Automated task scheduler with automated pruning (retention policy) for old archives and email alerts (SMTP).
  • Rate Limiting: Configurable download delays to prevent triggering anti-DDoS or IP bans on shared hosting environments.
