    Rank Math free

    This is the error message I receive on WordPress:
    The package could not be installed. PCLZIP_ERR_BAD_FORMAT (-10) : Unable to find End of Central Dir Record signature

    Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to fix this? The regular Rank Math updated without issue.
