 * I clicked update NextGEN gallery update, and it deleted the plugin. Everything
   is gone. The images, the titles, captions, and galleries. I have no idea how 
   to recover this. It was weeks of work.

 * Same problem. Updated the plugin to the latest, update failed and all existing
   galleries gone. Plugin no longer appears in list and reinstall fails:
    Downloading
   install package from [http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-gallery.zip…](http://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/nextgen-gallery.zip…)
 * Unpacking the package…
 * Installing the plugin…
 * Destination folder already exists. C:/wordpress/wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/
 * Plugin install failed.
 * Gallery 1.9.12
    Wordpress 3.5.1 Like JEBERLECO I’d rather not have to recreate
   all the galleries 🙂 Site is a self hosted intranet, not publicly accessible

 * Same here. After Update nearly all Nextgen-Plugin-Files have 0-byte size.
    Solved
   with overwriting (FTP) with V 1.9.10

   [@fezak](https://wordpress.org/support/users/fezak/), Make sure you all are running
   v1.9.12 of the plugin, and then deactivate & then reactivate the plugin. That
   should refresh the database tables and your images + meta should reappear.

 * Maybe something went wrong when (automatically) updating.
    Manual upload did 
   it.
 * Another automatic update to v1.9.12 was fine.
 * So I think the problem was/is NOT the NGG-plugin!

 * Quite possibly because a file or two is missing. Has nothing to do with uploading-
   deactivating and all that other nonsense.
 * I’ve an error calling for upgrade.php
 * wp-content/plugins/nextgen-gallery/admin/upgrade.php) [function.include-once]:
   failed to open stream: No such file or directory in /…/…/public_html/wp-content/
   plugins/nextgen-gallery/admin/settings.php on line 201
 * Well that upgrade.php file is not in the zip. I checked by manually re-downloading
   and it’s not in there, but it IS in the previous version.

 * Hi [@freedom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/freedom/) Builders , the upgrade.
   php file was removed as of v1.9.10 in preparation for v2.0 and is no longer needed.
   It is still mentioned in one file, causing the error that you saw, to show in
   some rare cases, which we are including a fix for in our next upgrade. Until 
   we release the next upgrade, you can resolve this issue 1 of 2 ways:
 *     ```
       a) add "error_reporting(0);" to wp-config.php
   
       or 
   
       b) in settings/admin.php, remove line #201: include_once (dirname (__FILE__) . '/upgrade.php');
       ```
   
 * That should do the trick! 🙂
