Problem: The WPML CMS plugin was removed and could not be reinstalled due to an error indicating that the target folder already exists. Solution: We recommend manually deleting the existing WPML plugin folder from your server. After removing the folder, download the plugin from https://wpml.org/account/downloads/ and install it as you would with any other WordPress plugin. Please test your website afterwards and let us know if everything functions as expected.
If this solution does not resolve your issue, or if it seems outdated or irrelevant to your case, we highly recommend checking related known issues at https://wpml.org/known-issues/, verifying the version of the permanent fix, and confirming that you have installed the latest versions of themes and plugins. If problems persist, please open a new support ticket at WPML support forum.
