 * When I try to delete the plugin, I get the following message:
 * Plugin could not be deleted due to an error: Could not fully remove the plugin(
   s) backwpup/backwpup.php.
 * I wasn’t able to manually delete the directory either. I also tried to delete
   the sub-directories first but without success. Any suggestions?
