 * the installation of WordPress is missing. Somehow Jetpack destroyed my installation
   files where I can’t log, nor are my posts showing, my database is still intact,
   what can I do to restore the installation?
 * I do not want to install a brand new installation, as I won’t be able to access
   my old posts, and my online store.

 * Take the backup of database and wp-content, delete jetpack and try to reinstall
   wp, this way your db & files will be there, then you just have to reinstall jetpack
   plugin.

 * See [https://wordpress.org/support/article/updating-wordpress/#manual-update](https://wordpress.org/support/article/updating-wordpress/#manual-update)
 * That will get you the files back. You’ll probably have to edit wp-config.php 
   when done in order to connect to your existing database (if it’s still there).
   Contact your host about that.
