 * Hi [@javiermargencom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/javiermargencom/)
 * That might be due to a failed update of the plugin as a file is missing. We have
   a guide below:

 * Hello,
 * Thanks for your reply.
 * Both bootstrap.php and wfWAFIPBlocksController.php are there.
 * The only file or folder missing is C:\wp\wp-content\plugins\word, which I don
   ´t know what is it.
 * The plugin seems to be working fine, though. The only problem are the repeated
   errors in the php log.
 * Would you recommend to uninstall and reinstall the plugin again?

 * Hi [@javiermargencom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/javiermargencom/)
 * Thank you for the update.
 * I would like to have a look at your Wordfence diagnostics report. Please go to
   the top of the “**_Diagnostics_**” tab on the Wordfence “**_Tools_**” page. There
   will be a “**_SEND REPORT BY EMAIL_**” button to send the diagnostics report.
   Enter **_wftest [at] wordfence [dot] com_** as the email and**_ javiermargencom_**
   as the forum username please.
 * Once you have emailed me the diagnostics report can you reply here to let me 
   know that it has been sent. This is important in the unlikely event that your
   installation of WordPress is having an issue with sending mail.

 * Hi [@javiermargencom](https://wordpress.org/support/users/javiermargencom/)
 * Your error log has the absolute file path for WordPress as:
 * **C:\wp**
 * But the report has the absolute file path for WordPress as:
 * **C:\inetpub\wwwroot\pressentia_v2**
 * Can you explain the discrepancy please?

 * Yes, in my first post I edited the log for clarity; the actual path shown in 
   the log is the same as your report.
