I have weekly backups enabled. I manage 15 websites, and was wondering, if 1 website got demolished in the middle of the week. I would need to restore a backup to recover that website. But I would lose any other changes I made to other websites. Is there a way to only restore a single website (folder)?

Hey friend!
With our backup system it is only possible to write the full backup image to the server. For something more specific to your use case, a custom backup solution would be best. I usually keep storage servers with various providers personally, and then run rsync cron jobs to copy data over regularly. It never hurts to have redundancy in the backup plan :)
