 * Hi,
 * I am getting a pop-up box when I try to restore a file (stored on local hard 
   drive) to my Localhost or a live site:
 * “Version 2.1.1 of All in One WP Migration introduces new compression algorithm.
   It makes exporting and importing 10 times faster.
    Unfortunately, the new format
   is not back compatible with backups made with earlier versions of the plugin.
   You can either create a new backup with the latest version of the plugin, or 
   convert the archive to the new format using our tools here.”
 * I am using the latest version of the plugin (downloaded it for the first time
   today).
 * I have tried restoring on both WordPress 4.2 and 4.2.1
 * The message talks of version 2.1.1 yet the current version is already past 3.
 * Any ideas ?
 * Thanks,
 * Jeremy.

 * Hi Bernard Peacocke,
 * The resolution is that we found out Jeremy had manually zipped .wpress file created
   by the plugin and was trying to import it.
