 * I’m not sure what file you are referring to, as there is no woo-setup.php file
   in WooCommerce core afaik. Is this in your theme maybe?
 * And either way, you shouldn’t be editing files directly in plugins or themes 
   anyway. If there is a hook/filter you need to use that, otherwise should contact
   the plugin/theme authors to add in a hook for what you need to change.
 * If you’re not able to edit/update files, then my recommendation would be to look
   into hiring a developer to help with these custom code changes you need to make.

 * Hi!
    The solution was to deactivate yoast. Then I was able to upload the woo-
   setup.php over ftp. regards
