On shared hosting/VPN or cloud if you’d like to increase the default max file upload size from 10M check our the below

You need to set the value of upload_max_filesize and post_max_size in your php.ini (in the example below 40M is what I’ve set the max upload to, however you can change to whatever you’d like eg. 100M etc.):

; Maximum allowed size for uploaded files.
upload_max_filesize = 40M

; Must be greater than or equal to upload_max_filesize
post_max_size = 40M

Or in the cursed .htaccess file 

php_value upload_max_filesize 40M
php_value post_max_size 40M

Happy uploading ....
