 * I keep getting a forced WordPress update that breaks my WordPress site and asks
   me to re-install WordPress!
 * Here is the error:
 * _**[Moderated: Large code excerpt removed per [forum guidelines](https://wordpress.org/support/forum-user-guide/faq/#i-need-to-post-code-is-that-okay).
   Please use [Pastebin](https://http://pastebin.com/) and [Gist](https://gist.github.com//)

 * Try [manually resetting your plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/article/faq-troubleshooting/#how-to-deactivate-all-plugins-when-not-able-to-access-the-administrative-menus)(
   no Dashboard access required). If that resolves the issue, reactivate each one
   individually until you find the cause.
 * If that does not resolve the issue, access your server via [SFTP or FTP](https://wordpress.org/support/article/ftp-clients/),
   or a file manager in your hosting account’s control panel (consult your hosting
   provider’s documentation for specifics on these), navigate to /wp-content/themes/
   and rename the directory of your currently active theme. This will force the 
   default theme to activate and hopefully rule-out a theme-specific issue (theme
   functions can interfere like plugins).

 * I have made a backup of my WordPress page in my hosting provider, but when I 
   remove the files and add them back the page just won’t work after..
