 * Hi,
 * We are still trying to understand why this happens for some of our users, as 
   we cannot reproduce the issue on our end and we haven’t identified a pattern 
   so far. The easy workaround is to uninstall the MaxMind file by deleting a file
   or folder named “maxmind.mmdb” under
 * /wp-content/uploads/wp-slimstat/
 * You can then manually download the BINARY FORMAT file from
 * [https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/](https://dev.maxmind.com/geoip/geoip2/geolite2/)
 * After you unzip the downloaded file, rename it to maxmind.mmdb and upload it 
   to the same folder. Please let me know if that solves your problem.
 * Jason
