 * Hi,
 * When I upgraded my WordPress to 4.4.1 I get this error message when trying to
   access WP-Admin
 * Fatal error: Call to undefined function wp_removable_query_args()
    /public_html/
   wp-admin/includes/misc.php on line 900
 * I see a lot of people are having this issue, and I have tried all the steps provided
   by others.. I tried to upgrade WordPress manually – Didn’t Work
    I tried to deactivate
   all my Plugins, by changing the name to plugins.hold – Didn’t Work
 * I replaced the misc.php file with a misc.php from older version 4.3.1 – WORKED!
   
   It worked to enter my admin page, and then it wants me to update again.. If I
   update again, I get the same error, and I solve it by replacing the misc.php..
 * But that is a temporary solution. I wonder if anyone has a solution to this problem?
   
   We are in need of updating our site and plugins…
 * Help please! ?
 * Kind Regards,
    Emelie

 * Hi,
 * Have you tried logging into your server via FTP or SFTP and navigating to /wp-
   content/themes/ and renaming the directory of your currently active theme? This
   will force the default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific
   issue (theme functions can interfere like plugins).

 * Hello,
 * Yes I have tried that too. The error still exists, but my webpage goes blank.
 * I wonder what this depends on.. It is really annoying..
