# Update problem, plugins.php corrupted

 * While updating several plugins, incl. Events Made Easy, I did not immediately
   deactivate and reactivate Events Made Easy.
    When I tried to do this a few minutes
   later, (wp-admin/)plugins.php appeared to be corrupted. None of the plugins were
   visible, only a blank screen. Only completely removing Events Made Easy from 
   wp-content restored a workable state. Could the warning message that is displayed
   in red on the Plugins page result in some sort of state that disables plugins.
   php? Is there a way to restore this state without having to reactivate or remove
   Events Made Easy?

 * No, I just add that warning via a wordpress API call, it’s not a check made by
   wordpress. So my guess is something weird happened while upgrading all your plugins(
   I usually do it one by one), maybe the EME reinstall failed or so … But these
   are wordpress mechanisms, I can’t influence those. Did you check your logs? Did
   you try to enable wordpress debugging to see anything on screen?
    What you can
   do now: just install EME again, see if it works.
