Viewing Compatibility Issues

When restoring a backup file, you can view a comparison between the system backup file you wish to restore, and the current system, which will be overwritten by the restore file.

In the process of restoring a system backup, a compatibility check automatically runs in the background to check for package and bundle differences on the current system. A Compatibility page is displayed when differences are found.

Note: Uploading a system backup file automatically invokes the restore process when the upload process is complete. Refer to Uploading a Saved Backup for details.
