### What issue or error are you experiencing?

I wasn’t aware that it wasn’t a good idea to install the plugin locally and was locked out from logging in. I need to be able to get back in. Is there a way that that error message can be removed?

### What steps can be taken to replicate the issue? Feel free to include screenshots, videos, etc

### System Details

- **Local Version:**

- **Operating System (OS) and OS version:**

### Local Logs

Attach your Local Logs here ([Help Doc - Retrieving Local’s Log](https://localwp.com/help-docs/troubleshooting/retrieving-locals-log-file/))

_ **Security Reminder** _  
Local does a pretty good job of scrubbing private info from the logs and the errors it produces, however there’s always the possibility that something private can come through. Because these are public forums, always review the screenshots you are sharing to make sure there isn’t private info like passwords being displayed.

Hi @CommonSensei

If you click on Site Shell in your Local app you can disable the plugin manually.

`wp plugin deactivate really-simple-ssl`
