* Hey guys, I get the following error pop-up when opening the plugin or clicking
on any of the back-up options:
* ```wp-block-code
Unexpected response: {"n":"Existing backups 4","t":" ..."}
```
* The backups still complete, but the error keeps appearing. I don’t know if the
back-ups are getting corrupted or not and am concerned that I wouldn’t be able
to restore my site with the plugin in future if I needed to.
Any ideas what’s
going on or how to fix? Cheers!

* Hi,
* Are you using Nord VPN, if so, please try deactivating this?
* The issue has been reported to Nord and they have escalated it but I am afraid
you will need to contact them for further advice.
* Please note that whilst this is annoying, it does not in any way affect your
backup.
* If you would like me to check your log to ensure your backup is ok, please post
it using a tool such as pastebin.com

* Hi,

* Nord are aware of the issue and have apparently escalated it. You will need to
contact them for further updates.
* Assuming you are using Nord VPN, this is not something to worry about, your backup
will be fine and will be restorable.
* If you post your backup log using a tools such as pastebin.com, I am more than
happy to check it for you to make sure all is well.
