 * Hi [@shivmaikhuri](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shivmaikhuri/)
 * The issue is most likely caused by web server of your source website.
    Due to
   download size limit, Super-Quick Migration couldn’t finish download. We have 
   alternate download method that may resolve the issue.
 * Please carefully follow the steps below for each site.
 * On the site where you made the backup:
    1. Go to our plugin settings and open“
   Other options” section 2. Enable alternate download method: [https://prnt.sc/1slr41w](https://prnt.sc/1slr41w)
   3. Save that section – No need to make new backup
 * Now, go to the site where you want to restore your backup:
    1. Open “Other options”
   section as well 2. Disable PHP CLI checking: [https://prnt.sc/1sljr31](https://prnt.sc/1sljr31)
   3. Save that section 4. Force both processes to stop: [https://prnt.sc/1trv1tm](https://prnt.sc/1trv1tm)
   5. Try to run the migration again with the same URL
 * If that won’t work, please repeat the “force both processes to stop” step.
    Once
   you do that, download your backup and try to upload it manually.
 * You can upload your backup via FTP, cPanel or our Upload Area.
 * Let me know if that resolves your issue 🙂
    Thank you!

 * Many thanks for your response. Yes download size limit was the issue. I could
   manage to fix the issue and got it migrated successfully.
 * Once again your response is indeed appreciated.
 * Keep it up.
 * Thank You
