Backup and Web site data synchronization

To ensure the accuracy of percentile data, to avoid irrelevant content. You can set the "Automatically delete files and directories that do not exist in the source directory" feature in the Copy rules interface, which automatically deletes additional files in the local backup folder. However, it should be noted that before enabling this feature you need to ensure that the local Web site backup folder is private, there are no other files, otherwise there will be mistakenly deleted files.
