# Plugin Update deletes folder

 * Each time the plugin gets updated , I receive the same error:
 * All in One WP Migration is not able to create …/htdocs/wp-content/plugins/all-
   in-one-wp-migration/storage folder. You will need to create this folder and grant
   it read/write/execute permissions (0777) for the All in One WP Migration plugin
   to function properly.
 * I SSH into the box and create the folder, set the permissions and then the plugin
   works as expected. Then after the plugin updates, I get the same message, and
   have to redo this entire process. Hosted on amazon, is there any way to prevent
   this behavior? Its a bit of a maintenance issue to have to keep doing this for
   clients using the plugin.

 * Hi gbever,
 * Could you make sure wp-content folder permissions are set to 775 recursively,
   so the plugin can create its storage folder?
