  Hi I’m looking to download my entire site https://newartoldart.wordpress.com. It is all images and about 4GB full, there is no text. Is there a reliable trusted free software that can do this that that is not full of viruses or spam or faulty? Or do I need a paid premium service? I have thousands of images on my site so I need a bulk site downloader. Thank you.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  I see there are a lot of free sorftware programs to do this on open source, I’m just not sure of trust and spam and reliability plus viruses and malware, if I download an unknown program.

  HI ,
  One the simplest way to have a back up is to download the whole copy of it , or move it to a parallel platform , you can even download the whole or specific sections as well.

  Thanks pavanraheja. However that link you gave me and the info is about exporting site some site contents it is not about exporting site images to my computer. I have around 4GB images I want to get onto a folder on my computer. I need a reliable trusted site downloader program, but I don’t know of a trusted one, I only see free programs that all say “unknown publisher” when you try to download them. Thanks.

  HI ,
  Yes you can download the copy of the website , it should not disturb your website now. While downloading you will have the option of Download All (along with content) so make sure to check that.
  They will be XML files which you can use on the same platform.
  Let me know if we can help you further.

  Please do not open more than one forum thread on the same topic. It makes it difficult to keep track of progress.
