How to copy/move a site from WIX.com?

In connection with the development of the company, it is required to translate the site from WIX.com, refine the functionality, tweak the design, etc.
The site contains both FLASH-objects, and graphics, and dynamic elements (drop-down menus, drop-down lists in the text, etc.).
I tried to make a copy of TeleportPro / HTTrack, the local version is absolutely not suitable with the available configurations: a bunch of scripts that work only in the WIX environment.
Are there any other tools that can simply copy the site so that it can be published on a regular host?
Thanks in advance for the tips and advice!

No. Since all PHP code is closed, transferring from such site resources is almost impossible. To copy, you need to have the source code of the engine (more precisely, the piece on which the already assembled site works) and a dump of your part of the database. Or you can take a template and try to attach it to any suitable cms, but this is not quite a transfer. Alas.

If you just transfer the site in order not to pay WIX, then you can use ripads.
But how convenient it is to edit it, after that, I won’t tell you, since I myself am racking my brains over this issue. By the way, I would be very grateful if someone could tell me.

Everything that can be done with the so-called "site transfer from wix.com" is called piracy ( sergetkach.com/kak-perenesti-sajt-s-wix-com )

Try a program from Cyotek: WebCopy. I managed to copy the site, albeit clumsily, but at least I pulled out all the content.

You can only transfer a domain if you registered through Wix and content. Here https://dampi.ru/kak-perenesti-sayt-s-wix describes how the domain can be picked up. And so, in fact, we put the same WordPress and transfer it page by page.
To be honest, how many people addressed me with this request, there was essentially nothing to transfer besides the domain. What was called "design" or "pattern" was just a terrible mess. Content - a couple of paragraphs on 4 pages. In fact, people had to make a site just from scratch, because what they called the site was an uninformative sticky mess with terrible colors and clumsy pictures.
So think about whether you have anything to transfer from there at all. If you want a designer, look towards Elementor, Wix nervously smokes aside

I also got confused in order to save the template from this Wix. But I came across an article https://dampi.ru/kak-perenesti-sayt-s-wix
It only tells how to take your domain and that's it. But I also wanted to take the template, it is the most chic in the world, approved even by the grandmother of the general. I talked with the author, he showed what people are doing on the same elementor, and I realized how poor this Wix is ​​and that it really makes sense to take only the domain from there, there is nothing more important there.
