 * Hi. After a theme update – X 4.2.2 – I have a problem whenever I try to use the
   plugins menu – I get a maintenance screen. I can’t see anything in the plugins
   directory like a maint file. It just goes to the screen immediately. Everything
   else seems to work ok including the plugins> Edit and Add New, but choose the
   installed option and I get the screen. I’m in contact with Themeco also, but 
   it ‘feels’ like a WP specific problem. The site functions ok as do all the other
   menus so far.

 * And you *only* see the maintenance notice in the Plugins section? No where else?

 * Thanks for the reply James.
 * It was only in that section yes. I received a reply from Themeco literally moments
   earlier and the reason was super simple – browser cache. They tried it on another
   browser and no problems, so I cleared mine (Chrome) and – voila. I’d have never
   of thought of something as simple as that or it could have that effect – I’ll
   remember it for sure!
 * Thanks again for the support.
