 * Hi,
    I am looking at a website that needs some maintenance and noticed that the
   WordPress version needed to be updated so I wanted to do a backup of the website
   prior to making any changes. I installed your software around 2 years ago and
   noticed that the scheduled backups had not been done in some time. On further
   investigation, I found that the plugin needed to be activated and unfortunately,
   I came across the following error message when I attempted to activate it:
 * Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
 * Fatal error: Cannot redeclare hmbkp_init() (previously declared in D:\Websites\
   Ax\By.temppublish.com\public\v3\wp-content\plugins\backupwordpress\backupwordpress.
   php:130) in D:\Websites\Ax\By.temppublish.com\public\v3\wp-content\plugins\backup-
   with-restore\backupwordpress.php on line 187
 * Can anyone help?
 * Thanks!
