 * I can’t activate WPEC 3.8.13.3 after upgrade and get the following error message…
   
   Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.

 * Looks like something went wrong when you downloaded and unpacked the plugin update.
   I double checked the zip file and the file in the error message is in the correct
   place.
 * My suggestion is the following
    1.  Make sure you have a valid backup of your site.
        Deactivate WP e-Commerce Manually
       delete the plugin files Re-download and Reinstall again.
