 * I just figured that my wp-admin folder is gone.
 * Any ideas/clues, besides getting hacked ?
 * p.s – site is up and running.
 * update – restored the wp-admin. all good again. but i am wondering how this happened.

 * Sorry HandySolo – I cannot post the site’s URL. Sorry if it clashes with the 
   rules.
 * Just repeating – the wordpress installation is working properly.
 * The wp-admin folder went missing ( along with my MINT installation folder ). 
   I just replaced them both – and they are working fine.
 * Thank you all.

 * no-one can help you without a url. if wp-admin/ is gone, reupload the files.
 * what the hay do you want anyone here to tell you? how it happened? how do we 
   know? ask your host.

 * I have a similar problem although I have the admin file, yet I can’t log in. 
   When I try to log in I get an error that I don’t have privilages to do so. And
   the admin page looks stripped off most of the stuff.
    I reuploaded the file and
   the problem persists. I am new to this software, maybe that’s why I had four 
   blogs hacked into lately and lots of problems. This one I am not able to resolve
   by myself.

    Someone must be able to login check this link to see if you can find
   out who the administrator is. [](http://www.tamba2.org.uk/wordpress/phpmyadmin/)

 * Sorry for the delay. My connection was down.
 * My problem was that the whole wp-admin directory went missing.
 * But the databases and other files were untouched. The site was running 100% perfect(
   without administration, ofcourse).
 * I just re-uploaded the same version’s wp-admin folder – and it worked again.
