 * I am also continually experiencing this issue. I’ve already called my host and
   they confirmed that they extended the PHP execution time. But I am still seeing
   this error message everyday. How do I stop getting this error message at the 
   top of my screen?

 * I am getting this error as well. Everything was working fine until last week 
   and now I get this error every time I attempt to backup.

 * OK, now I was able to backup without the error.
    Sorry for the false alarm.

 * Dear [@annapanpurna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/annapanpurna/),
 * Could you, please, submit your request in a new support topic thread?
    This thread
   has gone too long, and the reason for this issue differs for the users, so it’s
   not really the same case. 🙂
 * We checked your log and everything seems to be ok with it.
    Please, try to extract
   your backup with our extractor and see if it goes well: [Extract SGBP archive](https://help.backup-guard.com/en/article/extract-sgbp-archive-hwyeo1/)
