 * My site crashed after the update.
   I managed to get my website back online by 
   disabling the plugin.However I can no longer activate it, I get the following
   message when I try to activate it “The extension could not be activated, because
   it triggered a fatal error.”

 * I had the same issue, here is the log .
 * My only way to be able to use my website for now is to restore a previous version
   and not update the plugin until a fix is released.
 * Version 7.8.1 | By [LifterLMS](https://lifterlms.com/) | [View details](https://aleksavina.com/wp-admin/plugin-install.php?tab=plugin-information&plugin=lifterlms&TB_iframe=true&width=600&height=550)

 * I did the same. I’m waiting for a fix. Thank you for your message, it reassures
   me that I am not alone 🙂

 * Thank you [@nghtmre](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nghtmre/) and [@torrp3nn](https://wordpress.org/support/users/torrp3nn/)
   for the report!
 * We’re not yet able to replicate the error, and that file does exist within the
   zip. We’ve only had a handful of a similar error report out of the hundreds that
   appear to have downloaded 7.8 so far.
 * Is there a security or malware plugin running on the site by chance? Which hosting
   company are you using, and is there a security/malware service provided by them
   that may be deleting that file incorrectly? Though the `/includes/class.llms.
   l10n.js.php` file has been in place for some time (and exists in both 7.7.x and
   7.8.1), perhaps it’s being flagged incorrectly as an issue in the latest version.
 * Any additional detail on your site and the hosting environment you could provide,
   and how the plugin is being updated, would be appreciated to identify what’s 
   going on.
 * Cheers!

 * Version 7.8.1 crashed one of my websites, but reverting back to version 7.8.0
   brought the site back.
 * To fix the issue temporarily, download version [7.8.0] from the link below, upload
   it, and replace the latest version.

 * We have released version 7.8.2 which aims to avoid a fatal error if this file
   is deleted from our release files incorrectly.
 * I’ll mark this thread as resolved, but please confirm if this fixes things, or
   open a new thread if a different error occurs. Thanks!

   if there’s any further issue.
   Best regards
