# Wpress-Extractor Windows/Mac
|
|
A simple windows app that allows you to extract .wpress files created by the awesome All-in-one-Wp-Migration Wordpress plugin
|
|

## Credits

The extractor source code : [https://github.com/yani-/wpress](https://github.com/yani-/wpress). I had to make a tiny modification to their reader.go file to allow it to run on Windows systems.

## How to extract/open .wpress files ?
|
|
Simply provide a path to your downloaded .wpress file as the first commandline argument to the program.
|
|
`./wpress_extractor /path/to/my/backup.wpress`
|
|

## I'm not very technical - How to use this thing?
|
|
### Windows Instructions
|
|
|
|
Simply download the extractor then drop your.wpress file onto the executable (Wpress-extractor.exe). ([Thanks hughc](https://github.com/hughc)!)

|
|
|
|
|
|
1. Download the extractor
|
|
2. Create a directory where you wish your files to be extracted to
|
|
3. Copy the downloaded extractor to that directory
|
|
4. Copy your .wpress file to that directory as well
|
|
5. Open up a command prompt
|
|
6. CD into the directory you just created, let's say its C:\Wordpress-Backup. The command you'll run would be `cd C:\Wordpress-Backup`
|
|
7. Now run the following command `wpress-extractor <name-of-your.wpress file>`. For example my .wpress file was fifthsegment.wpress so the command I ran was `wpress-extractor fifthsegment.wpress`.
|
|
8. You'll find your files extracted into the same directory where the extractor was run. In my case it was `C:\Wordpress-Backup`
