Spotok: The backup feature in Xisto cPanel is disabled (or at least was, when I tried it last). Clicking on it will only inform you that the backup isn't enabled. So, you have to resort to manual backup - i.e., download your site by FTP... hold on - why would you need to download your site ? In all probablity, you'd be designing it on your personal machine - so you have the original copy right there - and then you just upload it via FTP to Xisto... so there..

It would be a lot better to use the backup feature though(for those who backup their files regularly). It can be a hassle backing up by DL'ing through FTP and saving your SQL database 1 by 1. It could be a great help to just download them all in a compressed form and restore them later. Clicking is the most convenient way.
