I got 5 errors when unzipping the plugin.zip file Error 0x80010135:Path too long I got 1 error when unzipping the uploads.zip file Error 0x80070057: The parameter is incorrect * (I’m not sure what to do with the db.gz file) * I also tried the same with Google Drive and got 1 error on the plugin file and 1 error on the uploads file when unzipping onto my PC. The same error codes as above. * I tried restoring both copies within Updraft but the Dropbox copy came up with the errors in my first post. * Plugin Contributor [bcrodua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcrodua/) * (@bcrodua) * [6 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-message-when-restoring/#post-12364232) * Hi, * Apologies for the late reply. * I tried to Google the error that you are getting and found this “Usually this error is caused when you use Windows Explorer or WinZip to extract files and it encounters a file path that exceeds the maximum character limit. To resolve this problem, you may use a decompression utility such as 7-Zip, that can handle long file paths” * Can you try that, please? * Regards, Bryle * Thread Starter [IanW](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikes46/) * (@mikes46) * [6 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-message-when-restoring/#post-12366581) * Hi, I have tried unzipping the backup from 5 days ago with 7-Zip and get the error message ‘There are some data after the end of the payload data’ * I have tried unzipping a backup from today and get the same error messages as before but using 7-Zip it unzipps OK I have tried restoring the backup from today and now get other warnings:- * This database backup has the following WordPress tables excluded: wpstg0_bwg_album, wpstg0_bwg_album_gallery, wpstg0_bwg_file_paths, wpstg0_bwg_gallery, wpstg0_bwg_image, wpstg0_bwg_image_comment, wpstg0_bwg_image_rate, wpstg0_bwg_image_tag, wpstg0_bwg_shortcode, wpstg0_bwg_theme, wpstg0_caos_webfonts, wpstg0_caos_webfonts_subsets, wpstg0_cfs_sessions, wpstg0_cfs_values, wpstg0_commentmeta, wpstg0_comments, wpstg0_links, wpstg0_litespeed_img_optm, wpstg0_litespeed_optimizer, wpstg0_mclean_refs, wpstg0_mclean_scan, wpstg0_nextend2_image_storage, wpstg0_nextend2_section_storage, wpstg0_nextend2_smartslider3_generators, wpstg0_nextend2_smartslider3_sliders, wpstg0_nextend2_smartslider3_sliders_xref, wpstg0_nextend2_smartslider3_slides, wpstg0_ngg_album, wpstg0_ngg_gallery, wpstg0_ngg_pictures, wpstg0_options, wpstg0_postmeta, wpstg0_posts, wpstg0_rank_math_404_logs, wpstg0_rank_math_internal_links, wpstg0_rank_math_internal_meta, wpstg0_rank_math_redirections, wpstg0_rank_math_redirections_cache, wpstg0_rank_math_sc_analytics, wpstg0_revslider_css, wpstg0_revslider_layer_animations, wpstg0_revslider_navigations, wpstg0_revslider_sliders, wpstg0_revslider_slides, wpstg0_revslider_static_slides, wpstg0_smush_dir_images, wpstg0_term_relationships, wpstg0_term_taxonomy, wpstg0_termmeta, wpstg0_terms, wpstg0_usermeta, wpstg0_users, wpstg0_way2enjoy_dir_images, wpstg0_wfBlockedIPLog, wpstg0_wfBlocks7, wpstg0_wfConfig, wpstg0_wfCrawlers, wpstg0_wfFileChanges, wpstg0_wfFileMods, wpstg0_wfHits, wpstg0_wfHoover, wpstg0_wfIssues, wpstg0_wfKnownFileList, wpstg0_wfLiveTrafficHuman, wpstg0_wfLocs, wpstg0_wfLogins, wpstg0_wfNotifications, wpstg0_wfPendingIssues, wpstg0_wfReverseCache, wpstg0_wfSNIPCache, wpstg0_wfStatus, wpstg0_wfTrafficRates, wpstg0_wfblockediplog, wpstg0_wfblocks7, wpstg0_wfconfig, wpstg0_wfcrawlers, wpstg0_wffilechanges, wpstg0_wffilemods, wpstg0_wfhits, wpstg0_wfhoover, wpstg0_wfissues, wpstg0_wfknownfilelist, wpstg0_wflivetraffichuman, wpstg0_wflocs, wpstg0_wflogins, wpstg0_wfls_2fa_secrets, wpstg0_wfls_settings, wpstg0_wfnotifications, wpstg0_wfpendingissues, wpstg0_wfreversecache, wpstg0_wfsnipcache, wpstg0_wfstatus, wpstg0_wftrafficrates, wpstg0_wpdevart_gallery, wpstg0_wpdevart_gallery_popup_theme, wpstg0_wpdevart_gallery_theme, wpstg0_wpdevart_images, wpstg0_yoast_seo_links, wpstg0_yoast_seo_meta * Plugin Contributor [bcrodua](https://wordpress.org/support/users/bcrodua/) * (@bcrodua) * [6 years, 6 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/warning-message-when-restoring/#post-12381616) * Hi [@mikes46](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mikes46/), * Apologies for the late reply. * Did you download a new backup from your storage?
