By default, backups created automatically by 3WXM are stored in the following location:

3WXM\backup\auto\plan_name

Backups created by you are stored in the following location by default:

3WXM\backup\manual\plan_name

3WXM zips the backup files and assigns them unique names. You can assign a name to a backup that you create. However, this name does not appear in the backup directory. To select a plan based on the name you assign, use the Backup/Restore dialog.
