 * Switch to Twenty Thirteen theme with **all** plugins deactivated and try again.
   Make sure that you have a recent backup of your site before updating.

 * I can’t change to 1213 or deactivate plugins. Neither can I get anywhere on the
   website. Whatever I do now I get the same error message. There is nothing I can
   do within the site or my dashboard.

 * Use FTP or your hosting cPanel to rename the plugins folder (add -HOLD to the
   folder name). Similarly, rename all themes except 2013 so that your site will
   open using that theme. You can login after that.

 * I updated to 3.6.1 the first day they released it. I”m on my site every day, 
   as late as last night. Now, this morning I get a message that says an update 
   is available: 3.6.1 and I need to update now. I already updated…how could this
   happen? Did some gremlins get into my site for something?

 * [@shashank](https://wordpress.org/support/users/shashank/) – confirmed this plugin
   is causing issues for us too – seems to be overriding a core function that’s 
   now changed.
 * We’ve opened a WooThemes ticket.

 * [@krishna](https://wordpress.org/support/users/krishna/): I don’t think it’s 
   helpful to paste the same response to every thread that mentions this error. 
   People are reporting this with a wide variety of setups _even when nothing else
   has changed_. My own take on this is that the error was introduced with:

 * Yep that’s the one. Annoying that Woocommerce originally informed me therewas
   no problem yesterday. Wasted a hell of alot of my time on this…

 * I updated to 3.6.1 and can’t search my Media Library. I am trying to retrieve
   already-uploaded images from the library to insert into a new post.
 * The Search box does not respond when I type in a search term.
