    My Yoast plugin has disappeared. It is no longer in the list of plugins. But I didn’t delete it myself. When I try to install it again I get the message: Installation failed: Destination folder already exists.

  • Hi @madammeke,

    Thanks for reaching out. Unfortunately, this can happen during (auto)updates due to the way the WordPress update systems work. This is beyond the control of our plugin, unfortunately.

    The quickest way to resolve it is by using your web host’s file manager or FTP access to remove the folder /wp-content/plugins/wordpress-seo (assuming it’s a standard installation of Yoast SEO). Once that is done, you can install the plugin again.

    If you don’t know how to do either of these, the best you can do is to reach out to your web host. They should be able to help you.

    Good luck resolving this annoying problem!
