"Update October 25th, 2018: As of version 6.78 the plugin now no longer supports file imports via the code found on the Wordpress plugin repository. The plugin author forces a “free” plugin download from outside of the Wordpress plugin repo in order to import from a file. This is very dangerous do not download code from outside the plugin repo like they’re recommending. The author’s code for this additional plugin will not be audited by the Wordpress plugin audit team, nor will it be licensed the same as that of the code on the plugin repository. This code could do damn near anything in the future, and if you use it, and update it, you’re trusting them 100% with your site’s security.

I’d advise finding another solution for your backups, as opposed to using version 6.78 and beyond. I’ve forked version 6.77 for my own personal use, I’ll be making many updates that I’m not going to provide community support for what so ever. If you were to download the plugin from me that would be from outside the Wordpress repo too, and you shouldn’t trust me with the security of your site…you don’t know me. Everyone’s on their own now, go find a solution that isn’t shady."
