I tried to upload images to the Media Library, but it was greyed- out and did not show the assets. I could not add media in a post, nor could I edit the URL or switch to “text” edit. I deactivated all my plugins and then turned them on one-by-one and tested the Media Library. It all worked fine until I hit this one. I tried it off and on a few times just to be sure. I was sure. If you suddenly experience problems with your Media Library or editing functions, this might be the answer. Several forum posts suggested deactivating plugins and several suggested other things. This worked for me. Hope this helps some poor frustrated WordPress user out there! Thank you. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/159eb2d8c49b4b49abc94e4bf47c396b2a39cb14b7fe2ae81f59a7eb87856123? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Outdated](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/outdated-10/)󠁿 [BNightwolf](https://profiles.wordpress.org/bnightwolf/) September 3, 2016 Don’t waste time installing this plugin if you have up to date wordpress. This plugin does not start backup and does not even have the move option it claim it should have.
