Hi, thanks for this amazing plugin!

I am having several issues with several files. I am migrating from Dreamhost to Site 5 hosting, and I prepared all my full XCloner backups on Dreamhost side and transfered the TAR files to my local computer. But when I check some of the local files they are missing a lot of information, the most common and evident thing I found is the plugins directory inside WP-CONTENT is kind of empty, no XCloner directory for example to retrieve the restore files.

These backups reported they finished properly when they were done on Dreamhost side.

Any ideas on what can be going wrong? It seems the plugin is skipping some files when doing the backups?

Thanks for your help!

Did you try and download the backups through a ftp client? do the downloaded size match the original one?

Thanks! That seemed to be the problem. For a reason I dont understand Chrome is not downloading big files completely although the download finishes as it was succesful.

I installed a Chrome extension that acts as a Download Manager to check if I can overcome this problem.

Thanks a lot for your help!
