I have accidentally messed up my WSL installations a couple of times by just playing around with things and tinkering with the system files. I like being able to do this, even if I do not really know how, and sometimes make mistakes--it is a beneficial learning experience for me each time. So rather than leaving things as they are and not playing around with things that I should not, I choose to make frequent backups. | ||
|
||
## π Making Backups | ||
I back up my WSL installations using a tarball created by the `WSL` executable supplied by Microsoft, using a command much like the one listed below. | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
WSL --export Ubuntu C:\Documents\WSL\Ubuntu-WSL.tar | ||
``` | ||
|
||
Note that I use a dedicated folder on an alternate hard drive, as I have a few WSL instances that I want to backup and some of them are quite large. I also append the date to the compressed file. | ||
|
||
## β Restoring From Backup | ||
You can restore a WSL backup with a command like the following: | ||
|
||
```bash | ||
WSL --import Ubuntu C:\Documents\WSL\Ubuntu-WSL.tar | ||
|
||
``` |

## π Remember Agar.io? | ||
Wikipedia defines [agar.io](https://www.agar.io/#ffa) as: | ||
|
||
> Agar.io is a massively multiplayer online action game created by Brazilian developer Matheus Valadares. Players control one or more cells in a map representing a Petri dish. The goal is to gain as much mass as possible by eating agar and cells smaller than the player's cell while avoiding larger ones which can eat the player's cells. Each player starts with one cell, but players can split a cell into two once it reaches a sufficient mass, allowing them to control multiple cells. The name comes from the substance agar, used to culture bacteria. | ||
The massive success of this game created a massive influx of copycat clones which you can learn more about in this YouTube video about [io Games and The Rise of Fake Multiplayer](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YCqnD40Q5T8&t=29s) | ||
