Restore Website but exclude some folders and subfolders

[MarkusParticipant]

With Updraft I can select tables in database which should not restored.
Is it also possible to exclude some folders and their subfolders?

Hi,

You can select which theme and plugins you want to restore with the Premium version. You cannot select any of your other files.
What files did you want o selectively restore?

I want restore the complete WordPress site but I don’t want to restore all files that are in folder
wordpress/wp-content/uploads/storeabill/ and its subfolders.

Unfortunately you cannot currently do this directly
You can log into the site via FTP once it’s restored the delete the folder
If you still have access to the site (you are migrating it) you can also add this file to the “exclude from uploads” section in the Settings tab.
You can then do a backup and restore it without those files
