Warning
For websites that use a database like WooCommerce, restoring to a previous version includes restoring the database to its previous state.
This means every entry you’ve added to the database after the backup point will be lost.
You can avoid data loss by creating a CSV dump export of the website database before starting the rollback.
You can then import the data after the rollback is complete. This applies to other websites with database backends.
