# Minified CSS not saving / loading

 * We just updated from 2.6.1 to 2.7 & noticed the site wasn’t having any CSS applied.
   After doing some hunting the /wp-content/cache/minify/ folder had no CSS / JS
   files in it, it’s like they weren’t getting saved at all.
   The frontend was still
   requesting the minified CSS / JS files, network inspector showed them loading
   with no content, instead of 404ing like they probably should have.For now we’ve
   rolled back to 2.6.1 & things are working again but we’re a little concerned 
   as we use W3TC on a ton of sites,

 * Thank you for reaching out and I am happy to help!
   Have you cleared minify and
   also purged all cache once you updated to the latest version?Can you please share
   the website URL so I can check those files and the fronted?
 * Thanks!

 * Cleared all caches (as we do any time we update any plugins), made no difference.
   Can’t share the URL publicly & we also had to roll back to 2.6.X to make things
   work again, can’t leave a client production site with no CSS / JS loading for
   an undetermined amount of time. It was a cPanel environment so that may have 
   something do to with it but we’ve also had no problems at all with W3TC in that
   environment until this latest version.

 * Hello [@reallydeej](https://wordpress.org/support/users/reallydeej/)
 * Have you tried disabling Minify and see if the problem persist and then re-enabling
   it again?
 * Can you please make a backup opf the configuration file and re-install the fresh
   version of the W3 Total Cache?
 * Thanks!
