Lost My Website after PC HDD failure  en

My PC recently suffered a total HDD failure, resulting in my having to get it reset and Windows 10 reinstalled. My website was lost in the process. I have most of the individual files, so rebuilding it is possible, but the site is huge in terms of the number of pages it contains. Unfortunately I didn't export the site to a backup.

Is there a way of downloading the website from my host company back into X5, or do I have to start all over again?

My site URL - http://www.progressiveplayersgateshead.co.uk/

Hello Jim

Unfortunately the X5 cannot import from webiste-files.

You have to make it all over again - by copy / paste method.

As you have all the material and the structure, it should not be too hard.

Luckily, one of the positive things about X5 is, that it is rather quick to build a site when having the material and structure ready.

Thanks John. tbh that's what I thought the answer would be. Rebuilding the site won't be hard, but it will be time consuming!

Thanks again.
