# How to Clone an Installation with Softaculous

If you would like to move/copy the current installation to another directory or even domain, **Clone** option is exactly what you need. 

**NOTE 1**: Clone option is available for a few scripts only at the moment. 

**NOTE 2**: It may be necessary to update some links/paths in the database of your installation after cloning. Not all of them may be re-assigned to the new domain/directory automatically 

Let’s say you have mistakenly installed WordPress to the **/wp** subfolder instead of the root folder of your domain. In this case, you will need to do the following: 


1) Login to cPanel and click on "Softaculous Apps Installer".

2) Click on **All Installations** Page of Softaculous.

4) On the next screen, you will see information about the current installation you are cloning.

Also, you will need to specify a domain name where you are trying to clone your installation, choose **In Directory** field and set some other options.




**NOTE**: In Directory field should be empty if you would like to clone the installation to the root directory of your domain. 




5) Click on **Clone Installation** when you are ready.
