Some operator on the hosting provider of my friend site removed (whiteout my permission) wrongly and probably the wrong way Admintools.

I’m trying to reinstall (1.0.0 Pro) but It failed, I can see all kind of Admin files, like “admintools-waf.php” that where left in the site ????

How I can manually cleanup all that and reinstall.
I really like to keep all my settings; (htaccess maker, firewall etc..) - if possible.

=========================================
Also I remark, before that mess that a user (from another continent) try to enter by my modify wp-login url, how that can be possible???

Something like that;
https://mysite.com/myspecialloginurl

They use the same url ?????

Hello,

let's handle one problem at time.
You said someone removed Admin Tools from your site. How? How can you say that? Are the files still there? It was completely deleted or simply disabled?
If the plugin was deleted, all your settings are lost.
Please double check if Admin Tools plugin was simply disabled, in the Plugins page.

Ouf!, Fix, after checking, they only change the permission on the plugin folder.

I change it back to 755 and the possibility to activate the plugin went back.

Everything working good, backup taken. Thanks.

Do you want me to open a new ticket for the entry attempt with right custom url ?
