Hi makimonaco,

After reading your comment it got me thinking to of where the files are stored.

Your going to want to look in your MySQL database, there are two tables that will interest you:

pp_file_repo - holds the actual file in a longblob value
pp_file_repo_attributes - holds the name,type and size of the file they are linked by a file id.

So to backup you can dump the table I guess or make a copy.

Hope that helps

thanks
