Would be great if there were a Server Data Backup app built into the Server Program. In the past I have lost all my own personal media data. Only to have to painstakingly rebuild it when I reloaded my files on a new server. A built in Backup app addressing this would be appreciated. Something where we could tweak and customize what, where and when we do a backup of server data. Thanks ---

A request for the same feature exists already, and it has more votes. > [@Backup Capability for Server Settings Not Content OR Rollback](https://forums.plex.tv/t/backup-capability-for-server-settings-not-content-or-rollback/762212/1): > > Plex requires a rollback and server settings functionality. I know that a volunteer here on the forum has generously written and supports a PoSH script, but that is a kludge. Plex needs to do this esp. for PAYING subscribers, and a rollback feature for when an update BUGGERS an individual user’s local install. This is no longer a “nice to have” it’s a we’ve got to have this or people are going to start going with other media solutions. When will this be implemented? A week? A month? 90 day… Therefore this one is closed, to prevent spreading the votes across several threads, even though they vote for the same (or at least very similar thing). Votes are given back to the users who voted on this request.
