 * Mentioned file `/wp-content/plugins/user-role-editor/includes/classes/base-lib.
   php` is apparently included into the installation package. It seems that plugin
   copy at your site was broken somehow. Try to rewrite the files at
    `/wp-content/
   plugins/user-role-editor/` folder with the copy from the fresh extracted user-
   role-editor-4.61.zip file downloaded from here.

 * Hi Vladimir, yes you are correct – I manually deleted old plugin, new update 
   works fine.
    Thanks
