ASSOUN
 I've backed my site up with Akeeba Professional. My site is currently online with Siteground.
When I tried to restore it with Kickstart on my local server (MAMP), everything went OK except at the end where I got a final message 'update .htacess that stucks everything.
Could you help ?
Many thanks

Quick fix for restoring the affected backup: After extracting the backup using Kickstart please delete the files installation/platform/steps.php and installation/platform/iniprocess.php using FTP or your site's control panel before clicking the Run the Installation button.

Please upgrade to 5.1.0.b2 per the article's instructions for a permanent fix in subsequent backups.
