    Hello there,

    cPanel users accounts are not able to see or use the backups that are generated. You can view the backups in WHM though, or you can restore then through SSH.

    Regards,
    Chris

    i have never seen restore options for cpanel, however, in one of my servers has cpremote which I think has the options that you are talking about.
    strictly speaking whm backups are for the host (root) not the cpanel users

    The backups generated from WHM are "internal" - the customers does not have access to them. You might also consider switching to the new backup system instead of the "legacy" backups.

    You could, however create a script that will copy a daily backup into your customer's directory.
