 * When you install or update plugins I think this was an error
 * PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature

 * Hi there,
    The error you are getting is because you are trying to upload compressed
   file format which is not ZIP. Extract the plugin if it is compressed in other
   format, then compress the plugin folder in ZIP format and try to upload it.
 * Thanks
    sourav
