How to backup a specific folder in the project, that contains scenes and assets?
Hi, I would like to backup a specific folder in my project that contains scenes and assets. How could I do it? Thanks for answering my concern.
Hi, not sure of what you need exactly. One way to extract scenes and all of their dependencies is to create a package. Select the scenes you want in the project view, and select in the menu assets/export package. The package exported can be re-imported in another or new project. Not everything is exported though (no resources folders, settings...).

You could use version control, like github or even just unity collaborate. Or the simplest approach, make a copy of your WHOLE project folder
To add on to this answer, when using git (or any VC), it is important to ensure your version control system knows what files to ignore, otherwise you can very easily end up with outdated builds and temp files backed up, taking up a lot more space than is necessary. In the case of git, the .gitignore at this link is a good starting place for any Unity project. https://github.com/github/gitignore/blob/master/Unity.gitignore
