stephen Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Does cpanel have the ability to download folders with all files included within those folders. I wish to download a folder named "images" and all image files contained in that folder. I realize the files can be downloaded individually, but that would be a slow, time consuming project. As an alternative I could also download a backup and gradually pick it apart to get the images. Also very time consuming. Am I missing something? The purpose of this exercise it to maintain a test site on my home computer. Thanks Stephen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Alex Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Welcome to the forums Stephen You can use the option "Home directory backup" inside the cPanel option "Backups" - that allows you to download the entire home directory. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TCH-Bruce Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Welcome to the forums Stephen You can always use an FTP program and bypass cPanel to download the folder. If you use Firefox, you don't even need an FTP client if you install the FireFTP plugin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

telcor Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Aside from the options listed above, you can also compress the desired folder within the cPanel File Manager, then download the resulting file. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
