Hi,
You said your site address is www.example.com but you access it using just example.com, so that's why you get this message (and some things won't work, like trying to connect to the Google Search Console).
The fix is simple, access your site by using the www.example.com address.

So, if I go to 4SEO pages-setting and Website home address, the address appears as https://www.example.com/, should I have to change to www.example.com ?

Hi
should I have to change to www.3dcadportal.com ?
No (I did not write the https:// prefix to save time - the https:// prefix is always there of course). There's nothing to change or do about 4SEO.
The problem is how YOU go to your website. To access the admin page of your website you are using:
https://example.com/administrator
This is wrong and you should go to the address:
https://www.example.com/administrator
Note that you have the same problem on your website frontend: I can visit https://example.com/ and https://www.example.com/
This is wrong: only one of them should be accessible. What you should do in 4SEO is enable this option to at least fix the frontend:
This will make sure that if someone goes to https://example.com/ they will be redirected to https://www.example.com/.
But that will not change the admin and so you must make sure to access your admin through https://www.example.com/administrator.
