# Uncaught TypeError

 * I’ve been having some issues with Uncaught TypeError. So some plugins wouldn’t
   work and features like: drop-downs, drag & drop, toggles, tabs, and some admin
   pages wouldn’t work (It’s not all the time). I’ve removed all caching. I even
   created a fresh install of WordPress, with no plugins and only the 2017 theme(
   I still get the errors). This leads me to believe its a server setting/configuration.
   I’m running Windows Server 2016 and IIS 10.
 * I found a forum that said to update the load-styles file from error_reporting(
   0); to error_reporting( E_ALL | E_STRICT ); it seemed to help a little, but not
   a 100%.
 * I deleted the index.php file located in the plugins directory. It helped some
   but not 100%. Is there a downside in deleting this file?
 * Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you

 * That file is irrelevant.
 * Its contents should be
 *     ```
       <?php
       //Silence is golden
       ```
   
 * and is just there to block directory listing if it’s otherwise enabled on your
   server.
 * What’s the exact error you get?

 * It appears that jQuery is not loading.
 * This may be a plugin or theme conflict. Please attempt to disable all plugins,
   and use one of the default (Twenty*) themes. If the problem goes away, enable
   them one by one to identify the source of your troubles.
 * If you can install plugins, install “Health Check”: [https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/](https://wordpress.org/plugins/health-check/)
   On the troubleshooting tab, you can click the button to disable all plugins and
   change the theme for you, while you’re still logged in, **without affecting normal
   visitors to your site**. You can then use its admin bar menu to turn on/off plugins
   and themes one at a time.
 * Also, please show the output from the debug tab of HealthCheck.

 * I already tried a clean site without plugins installed and the 2017 default theme.
   I still had errors.
 * I installed the recommended plugin with troubleshooting enabled (Disabled plugins
   and default theme) here is a link to the errors.

 * You’re using a commercial theme, Divi, so please use their official support channel.
   We feel they are best equipped to support their products.

 * Why would the theme matter if I’m still getting the errors without the theme 
   activated or installed?

 * It could be a server configuration error. Unfortunately, I know nothing about
   configuring an IIS/Windows server.
