I followed the instructions in this video
I pulled a manual backup via FTP of the wp-admin, wp-content (without the woo-commerce downloads folder because it is massive), wp-includes, and .SQL file.
I zipped everything into a single file and drug it into local. This is a very large site so it took a few minutes and then I got an error and had to abort.

Security Reminder
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.
