In your MyPressable Control Panel, you can create on-demand backups under your site’s Backups | Restores tab.

In this section, you will see the ability to create a file system backup or a database backup. You are limited to three backups at any point in time.

![](https://i0.wp.com/pressable.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image.png?resize=1024%2C509&ssl=1)On-demand backups are automatically deleted after thirty (30) days for the latest backup taken and seven (7) days for the oldest backups.

You can [restore your on-demand backups](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/restore-a-site-in-pressable-using-the-automated-restore-tool/) from the same screen.

![](https://i0.wp.com/pressable.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/05/image-1.png?resize=1024%2C509&ssl=1)The on-demand backups are separate from the automated backups we maintain for your site and will not affect the daily backups we automatically create.

Additional detail can be seen [in our knowledge base article here](https://pressable.com/knowledgebase/how-to-manually-back-up-your-site/).

We hope you find these helpful!
