 * Hi guys, 
   I installed the plugin and tried to create a backup with default settings.
   I always run into a timeout, while the plugin is searching for an executable 
   PHP-CLI file. Disabling it in advanced options didn’t fix the issue.
 * Thx for your support!
 * Debug code: BMI-pZWIIRkF-73763

 * Hi [@hedgehog1000](https://wordpress.org/support/users/hedgehog1000/)
 * Your issue is caused by modified PHP CLI. You can resolve the issue by disabling
   the checking step within our plugin configuration.
 * Please follow these steps on the site where you experienced this error:
    1. Go to “Other options” section
    2. Disable PHP CLI checking: [https://prnt.sc/1sljr31](https://prnt.sc/1sljr31)
    3. Change backup method (optional): [https://prnt.sc/1s1ofpa](https://prnt.sc/1s1ofpa)
    4. Save “Other options” section
    5. Force stop both processes: [https://prnt.sc/1trv1tm](https://prnt.sc/1trv1tm)
 * Once you do that, try to run your backup process again.
 * I see you said that you disabled it in advanced options, but I am not sure if
   you used our plugin advanced options (we have this option in “other options” 
   section, not advanced options section) or other one.
 * In any case, please double check as when you disable it within our plugin the
   message will be different, your debug code shows that the configuration of your
   plugin have the option still enabled.
 * Let me know if that worked for you 🙂
   Thank you!
