Q: 

How to extract files from Plesk backup under Windows?

  • I created a backup file in Plesk panel, downloaded it.

  • Renamed file to .zip and uncompressed with WinRar.

  • Opened unzipped file in Thunderbird email client and extracted "site.httpdocs" file.

How do I extract actual files from it? It seems like it is some sort of text document with all files dumped together.

Thanks.

I've made a tool for this here http://andymdn.com/2010/10/11/pleskdump-a-plesk-backup-extraction-utility/. Hopefully it helps you.

I don't work with plesk anymore (thankfully), but I'm sure it will be helpful to many. Thanks for sharing :)
