 * I am logging in to WP Admin, V 5.4.1. I want to install a plugin, but there is
   no Plugins tab; only a Plugins Wizard tab that does not show Installed Plugins
   or Add New. Clicking the Plugins Wizard tab shows an Installation Wizard and 
   says ‘Demo data import wizard will guide you through the process of demo content
   import and recommended plugins installation.’ Do I have to run the Demo data 
   import wizard? And more importantly, why don’t I have a Plugins tab with Add 
   New?

 * Are you logging in as an administrator? Is this a multisite site or a vanilla
   site?

 * Thanks for you help Steve. Yes, I am logging in as an administrator. I am fairly
   new to WP, but I believe that it must be a vanilla site because the company that
   I work for only has one website.

 * Please manually install the health check plugin and report back its findings 
   from the imfo tab: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
 * Also, use its troubleshooting mode to disable all plugins and the theme and see
   if the issue goes away.
 * See [https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/](https://make.wordpress.org/support/handbook/appendix/troubleshooting-using-the-health-check/)
   for more information.
