 * I’ve got a massive problem with my website and I’m in danger of losing 10 or 
   more years’ worth of work because the database has crashed. The database tables
   were corrupted during the last update and I can’t fix anything because as soon
   as I touch the database, everything freezes. A terrible experience with this 
   plug-in. Who’s going to sort this out for me now?

 * Hi [@melo88dy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/melo88dy/)
 * I hope you are doing well and sorry to hear you are facing this issue.
 * Could you describe further on what got corrupted? We haven’t receive any similar
   report for the latest version.
 * Wouldn’t you mind creating a support thread on [https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/broken-link-checker/#new-topic-0](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/broken-link-checker/#new-topic-0)
   and I hope we can convert this into a 5-stars experience.
 * Looking forward for the support thread.
    Best Regards Patrick Freitas

 * Hi [@melo88dy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/melo88dy/)
 * We still looking forward to verify your case.
 * Something that you may try is to rename the plugin folder via wp-content > plugins
   > broken-link-cheker to broken-link-cheker-old and wait to see if database recovers.
 * Opening the support thread we can help and guide you further to the solution.
   
   Best Regards Patrick Freitas
