I can of course upgrade from 4.2.0 Patch Level 3 to 4.2.1, but usually such updates come with their issues, and sometimes require needing to spend some time on fixing problems which occur with our skins etc. The problems occurred just before I upgraded to the latest patch level, by the way. And in addition to that, the server company restored the forum from a database, but also did that again after I had been upgrading to patch level 3, which may be one of the reasons behind the various problems we've had after that.

I have never used PhPMyAdmin, and never used FTP for other than uploading files.
According to the diagnostics function, the forum also contain a lot of files which probably shouldn't be there now (some of them are most likely harmless leftovers from plugins I now have deinstalled or disabled).
And, btw, I did empty the install folders, but it now contains an Include folder with class_upgrade_420a1.php in it.
