 * Hi [@rebelino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rebelino/),
    Glad you reached
   out, I can help here.
 * Sometimes plugin files will stick around when you try to delete from the Plugins
   menu, and you’ll need to use FTP or SFTP to scrub everything and get those files
   out. That’s why you are seeing an error message for “The target directory already
   exists”.
 * We have an excellent step-by-step article on how to navigate FTP to locate GiveWP
   and get it deleted:
   [https://givewp.com/documentation/resources/deactivate-wordpress-plugins-white-screen/](https://givewp.com/documentation/resources/deactivate-wordpress-plugins-white-screen/)
 * Download FileZilla:
   [https://filezilla-project.org/](https://filezilla-project.org/)
 * Next, navigate to the upper left hand corner to “Site Manager” or “Host” and 
   connect your site (this will ask for log in credentials). Once your site is connected,
   you’ll be able to navigate from your root folder to the wp-content directory.
   This is where your plugins folder lives (wp-content/plugins/). You’ll be able
   to delete any leftover GiveWP files from here, then you’ll be able to install
   GiveWP without that error message getting in the way.
 * Let me know if you have any questions in the meantime, I’m happy to help.

 * Hi [@rebelino](https://wordpress.org/support/users/rebelino/),
   It’s been a bit
   since we’ve heard back, and I know troubleshooting can take a little extra time.
   I’ll mark this as resolved for now, but if you still have questions you can send
   them along right here and I’ll be happy to give things a look. Have a great day!

 * Hi, sorry for the delay but I was sick. Thanks for your answer. I wanted to ask
   you how I can translate the theme from Italian to English. Also know if there
   is the possibility to make the theme I wanted multilingual and associate an e-
   commerce shop in Woocommerce. Thank you
