 * Hello,
    I recently updated to the latest version of Yoast SEO and the plugin 
   has disappeared. It is not visible on the WP dashboard or on my list of installed
   plugins. I tried to reinstall it, but get the following error message – Installation
   failed: Destination folder already exists. I’ve tried contacting the host provider
   to try and get them to uninstall it, but they are unable to help. Please could
   you advise.
 * Thank you
 * The page I need help with: _[[log in](https://login.wordpress.org/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fwordpress.org%2Fsupport%2Ftopic%2Fplugin-disappeared-28%2F%3Foutput_format%3Dmd&locale=en_US)
   to see the link]_

 * Quite unsure why this happened. Can you please try to re-install the plugin via
   FTP? This should resolve the issue.
