Backup

Backup strategies

Manual backup

Bisq1 has a manually triggered backup feature that saves a copy of the whole contents of the data directory to a selected location: backing up application data

Bisq2 has a very similar feature that can be reached under Support > Resources > Backup, and works in a similar manner.

Built-in automatic backup

Bisq2 extends the existing manual backup, and also provides a feature to create versioned backups: automatic backup

Custom automatic backup scripts

A standalone script is also available to create versioned backups on Windows, MacOS and Linux, of the essential database files of both Bisq1 and Bisq2: automatic backup script
