 * I suddenly get a message that Database tables are missing.
    Apparantly the following
   table is missing: _woocommerce_downloadable_product_permissions
 * We’re not even using downloadable products.
 * Is there a way to get this specific table back again?

 * Hi, I am assuming you are on WooCommerce 4.3, if so, please go to `wp-admin/admin.
   php?page=wc-status&tab=tools` page on your website and find a button called `
   Verify Database` (It should be second last tool on the page). If you click on
   this button, WC will try to verify if all the tables are present (and create 
   the ones that are not present).
 * You are seeing this notice because we added a check to make sure if all needed
   DB tables are present or not.

 * Thanks for your answer!
 * I tried that (several times) but everytime I get a message saying that the database
   is being verified … one or more tables are still missing wp_woocommerce_downloadable_product_permissions
 * I also tried updating the database but that doesn’t solve the issue either.

 * Found the cause: had a too long database prefix, shortened it and verified the
   database again – problem solved. 🙂

 * I am having a similar problem – here is the message that I am getting:
 * One or more tables required for WooCommerce to function are missing, some features
   may not work as expected. Missing tables: 1603129140_wp_mbqng7f5mz_woocommerce_downloadable_product_permissions.
   Check again.
 * I apologize that I am not a code warrior but I can’t find the wp-admin/admin.
   php?page=wc-status&tab=tools that you suggest. I have a bunch of downloadable
   products on my website and non of them will download for my customers. Please
   help me! (or direct me to someone I can hire to fix this)

 * You cannot find [http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-status&tab=tools](http://www.yourdomain.com/wp-admin/admin.php?page=wc-status&tab=tools)?
 * Besides that, seeing your table name, I suspect you also need to shorten the 
   database prefix, that’s the part before
    _woocommerce_downloadable_product_permissions–
   so this part: 1603129140_wp_mbqng7f5mz Better change that to wp_ so it will be
   wp_woocommerce_downloadable_product_permissions
