You have exceeded maximum login retries Please try after xx hour(s)

Are you having trouble to log into the WordPress dashboard admin page? It always gives you the following error:
You have exceeded maximum login retries Please try after xx hour(s)

This is a non stop keep happening issue before or after I was away for a couple of week and did not login. Is there any possibility to reset this timer? Is there possible solutions in the wordpress community and can it be solve?

As i recall and experienced before, it is due to the security plugin named Loginizer.

Loginizer is a WordPress plugin which helps you fight against bruteforce attack by blocking login for the IP after it reaches maximum retries allowed. You can blacklist or whitelist IPs for login using Loginizer. You can use various other features like Two Factor Auth, reCAPTCHA, PasswordLess Login, etc. to improve security of your website.

Loginizer is actively used by more than 1000000+ WordPress websites.

So, all you need to do its connect via FTP or your hosting control panel, take a look at the directory “wp-content/plugins”. Disable Loginizer by renaming the individual directories to something like “loginizer-error” or you may go to your phpmydamin to reset the lockout and retries counter. If not, then contact the developers of the Loginizer plugin to see how to fix your issue.
