# Plugin crashes dashboard screen

 * Installed plugin today.
    It generates a vertical, solid black column that blots
   out half my dashboard screen. Deactivated and deleted it. No change. Still generates
   the notification to install the plugin and when you click on the notification
   to dismiss/close it, it crashes the dashboard screen and gives the error message“
   Action failed. Please refresh the page and retry.” No amount of refreshing changes
   anything.
 * Any way of fixing this??

 * [@palerider001](https://wordpress.org/support/users/palerider001/) so sorry you
   encountered issues with the plugin. So it sounds like an issue is happening even
   when WooCommerce Admin is not installed? If so I would try to discover the root
   cause by looking at your error logs and/or disabling plugins one at a time until
   the problem goes away.

 * We haven’t heard back from you in a while, so I’m going to mark this as resolved–
   if you have any further questions, you can start a new thread.
