 * But currently if I uncheck “Store audio in Amazon S3” after save it puts this
   checkbox back. Apparently it does this because “local storage needs to be enabled”.

 * Hi, I found a solution to uninstall WP Inspect (formerly known as hooker). It
   didn’t show up in my CPanel under that web site plugins. So I ran my FileZilla
   FTP app and navigated inside my httpdoc folder, then went to: wp-content/plugins
   
   I renamed: wp-inspect to ~wp-inspect and went to CPanel and stopped my IIS App
   Pool and restarted my ISS App Pool, then my site would run again without getting
   the dreaded error 500. I run my site on HostGator shared Windows Server. You 
   may have to do something else on a Linux or other Unix type WordPress server.
   I am guessing on these other platforms that you would need to stop and restart
   the web server there? Not sure.
 * So I went to my site’s admin and under plugins I could see WP Inspect, so while
   there I went back to FileZilla and renamed ~wp-inspect back to wp-inspect . Then
   I went back to my admin for my site and deleted the WP Inspect. (It had never
   activated.) But I evidently had FileZilla inside the wp-inspect folder or something,
   because it didn’t really uninstall. Eventually I was able to uninstall (delete)
   this plugin.
 * For me when I got this problem I couldn’t run the Admin of my site! But I was
   able to delete it and use my site again, without having to restore it to a backup
   that was a few days old.
