Not for every time :-) ... but for a long time the best way an export into an iwzip-File (5 Export > Project export).

OK, thanks. 

But is there any auto-backup facility? If yes, where to find it and how to use it?

Click on the little arrow on the right side of the save button. WSX5 will create backups in a seperat direcory 'Backup' of the project directory.

See https://guide.websitex5.com/en/support/solutions/folders/44000430910 also. 

(Note that a project uploaded to the hoster is not (!) a backup. You cannot download it and continue working on it.)

Mandar, please do not rely on the built in backup, it will eventually fail you. The built in backup (unlike iwzip) does not include all the files required to reinstate your project in all cases. When trouble stikes it is great when (if) it works.

It is a long held wish of mine (& others) that the built in backup was comprehensive (just like the iwzip).
