 * Hi@galaxys5
 * You can try this solution, maybe it will help you:-
    - Please copy your `.wpress` file.
    - Paste it directly into your local WordPress site’s folder here: `wp-content/
      ai1wm-backups/`
    - Go to your local WordPress dashboard: **All-in-One WP Migration** > **Backups**.
    - You will see your backup file listed there. Click the **three dots (…)** next
      to it and hit **Restore**.
 * If it still blocks you, use the free plugin Duplicator instead, which has no 
   file size limits.

 * Hi [@mohamedjailani](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mohamedjailani/),
 * Thanks for your reply. I copied file into below location
 * wp-content/ai1wm-backups/ But the issue was restore wpress file using restore
   button. Then message pop up** ” restore functionality available in our unlimited
   extension”** I will try Duplicator and see.
