    Hello, I hope all is well.

    I need to recover the WordPress downloaded file (tar.gz/.sql.gz)
    We used the site domain [newmeon.com]

    We shut down the WordPress server while transferring our domain to another site.
    Before shutting down WordPress, we downloaded the homepage and received two files <tar.gz/.sql.gz>. We only want to recover ‘some’ of these, but we don’t know how. I would appreciate your telling me how to recover the file.

    Just in case, I’m attaching our files together.

    Best regards,
    Hawon Park

    I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

    Hi! The gz file should have your images if that’s what you’re looking for, and any data is in the SQL file. You’ll need to import that into a WordPress installation for easy access, or you can work with a developer to take care of it for you.

    Also, these forums are for our managed hosting services. For questions related to DIY copies of the free WordPress software, you’ll want to use its community forum going forward. We have more info on our services and the free software here. Cheers!
