[IMPORTANT] Stop using Minehut's backup system.

Let's start from the beginning. I recently made a backup for my server because I had to do some tests, I was confident so I didn't download the whole server in my PC. After I was done with the tests, I restored my backup using the "Restore" button. I waited a couple of minutes, and, when I got back to my server, what did I notice? That the whole server was wiped up and the backup was broken. Final result? Lost a whole month of work. Thanks Minehut for our daily dose of bugs.

Minehut's administrators should think about hiring developers, not dumbasses, and they should also think about the user experience, not just the money.

To be fair, minehuts backups are unreliable to some, but I have yet to have this problem ever.

Minehut's backup system isnt something to use until its a last resort, which is why you should download important files and worlds, in case something happens in the restoration process where itll corrupt and break. Save backups often, it will be less likely to break if it has less to change.

Download worlds and important files such as Skripts. Use Minehut’s backup system as an additional layer of protection (and convenience). Never had your specific problem but I believe something like it is entirely possible on Minehut.

I had the same problem. 4 months of work with my friends lost on a stupid damn farm.
