Ok. I didn’t know.  
But, what’s the diff between ‘Local Uploads’ and “Files Stored in S3 ‘Uploads’” folder?

Also, though I haven’t changed the setting in web\_only or in rails console as told above YET, but only chose the one setting told [here](https://bathindahelper.com/admin/site_settings/category/backups).

But still when I ran the backup, just 10 min ago, it showed as if it downloaded thousands of files, (which I presume could only be on my aws s3 storage bucket, and ‘Download’ word itself means it is downloading from remote S3 bucket folder).  
Also it is showing it `Failed to download` many, So many files. So I presumed if these files were on local cloud server, why would it miss to include those files in the backup? See this screenshot:
