    When uninstalling the plugin via the wp backend, produces following message:

    Plugin could not be deleted due to an error: Could not fully remove the plugin(s) quick-featured-images/quick-featured-images.php.

    Looking at the plugin via FTP, the “views” directory remains, and cannot be deleted, producing the following activity:

    Command:	CWD [blog]/wp-content/plugins/quick-featured-images/admin
Response:	250 CWD command successful.
Command:	CWD views
Response:	550 Access is denied.
Error:		Failed to retrieve directory listing

    Not sure entirely what that means, but it looks to me like, somehow, the permissions on the folder have been changed somehow. This is on a fresh install of the plugin, on a fresh install of WordPress 4.2.2.

    The plugin does not change permissions for files and directories. So it is not the reason for that problem. Please try to delete the directories in the admin area of your server or ask your provider to delete them.
