I deleted my username and then just recreated it( same name, same password) and that seemed to fix it. I’m not sure why, but I won’t argue.

Everything in my “images”, “downloads”, and “wp-includes” folders went missing. I have no idea why. Is this something that someone is hacking or is it a bad server thing?
