 * Hi, for the last several updates – when trying to update the Plugin via the WP
   Admin – the update fails due to the plugin files being removed/deleted and not
   replaced.
 * I then have to login via FTP > Delete the updraftplus directory > Reinstall the
   plugin.
 * All previous backups/setting persist, but this shouldn’t happen.
 * Any thoughts?
 * Ian.
