 * How far did you get with troubleshooting?
 * – Are you getting any errors in your log file that would indicate what/where 
   the problem is?
    – Have you tried temporarily deactivating all of your other 
   plugins and switch your theme to Twenty Thirteen to see if that makes the problem
   go away?

 * > I am so furious with this plugin …
 * Right. I got that. You’re still not really helping yourself but let’s see if 
   I can walk you through getting back into your WordPress dashboard.
 * If you are still locked out then try the following.
    1. Using [FTP](http://codex.wordpress.org/FTP_Clients) or whatever filemanagement
       tools your host has provided you with navigate to the `wp-content/plugins` directory.
    2. Once there locate and delete the `mdp-google-webmaster-tools` directory. Just
       that one directory and nothing else.
    3. Try and re-login to your WordPress dashboard.
 * If it’s the plugin that’s causing the problem then deleting that one directory(**
   do not delete anything else, just the `mdp-google-webmaster-tools` directory**)
   may get that sorted out for you.

   process as you told ).. now i have to go to basic option of backup …

 * If you’ve deleted that plugin directory and you don’t have anything added to 
   your `.htaccess` file by this plugin (I did not install the plugin myself but
   I don’t see why it would modify that file) then what ever problem you are having
   is **not** caused by this plugin.
 * How could it be it you’ve deleted it from your installation?
 * When you try to go to the WordPress dashboard are you getting any error messages
   in your browser or your web server’s `error_log` file?

 * Jan, whats going on?
 * Have you heard from him? I have installed it on many sites with no issues but
   would love to know what really was the problem.
 * Even had a few emails this am from satisfied people who want to know if there
   will be more features available.
