 * First of all, great product. Have been using WF for years now.
    But…. BUT… Just
   found out that back-up on my site is not running, and when searching for new 
   plugins, there were no results. I could not uninstall or install plugins without
   these errors “deletion failed: -1” or “update failed: -1” So, I had to disable
   all plugins about 10 of them and templates too. Then enable/disable plugin by
   plugin, to find out that Wordfence security Version 7.4.6 is “the issue”. Once
   WF was disabled, my backups were up, plugin search is quicker and no errors when
   updating/installing or deleting plugins.
 * WP 5.4

 * Thanks for your thoughts on the Wordfence plugin.
 * Have you reached out in [Premium support](https://support.wordfence.com) or [Wordfence support in the WordPress.org forums](https://wordpress.org/support/plugin/wordfence/)?
 * The backup problem can probably be fixed by running a job while the firewall 
   is in learning mode.
 * The other problem seems like it could be any number of things from permissions(
   files not owned by the php process owner) to a managed hosting issue of some 
   kind. Note : I [searched for this](https://www.google.com/search?q=install+plugins+%22update+failed%3A+-1%22&oq=install+plugins++%22update+failed%3A+-1%22&aqs=chrome..69i57.4600j0j7&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8)
   in case you want to look further. If you want further help you’ll need to reach
   out in the appropriate help location as the review section is not for support
   topics and discouraged by the moderators at WordPress.org.
