What are the proper permissions to set in order for backups to work?

Q. What permissions do I need to set in order for backups to work properly?

The normal permissions for ManageWP to work will either be 644 (files) or 755 (folders). However, this often depends on the hosting provider. You should contact your hosting provider for more details.
