How to Restore Backup on your ARK Ascended Server Print

 

 

Running an ARK: Survival Ascended server means you’re the guardian of your world’s progress. Whether you’re hosting for friends or managing a larger community, unexpected issues can happen—corrupted saves, unwanted changes, or even just the desire to roll back to a more stable point in time. That’s where backups come in. ARK: Survival Ascended automatically generates backups of your world at regular intervals, giving you the ability to restore your server to a previous state. By learning how to restore these backups, you gain peace of mind knowing that your hard work, your tamed creatures, and your structures are protected. This process involves identifying the correct backup files, replacing your active save data with the chosen snapshot, and ensuring the server loads the restored world properly. Once you understand the steps, restoring a backup becomes a straightforward way to safeguard your server and keep your adventures running smoothly.
