WP Toolkit can compare WordPress core files with the expected files for the installed WordPress version.
- Open cPanel → Domains → WP Toolkit.
- Find the website and open its additional actions.
- Select Check WordPress Integrity.
- Choose Verify Checksums.
- Review the results.
If core files do not match, WP Toolkit can offer to reinstall WordPress core files. Create a backup before repair work whenever possible.
Reinstalling WordPress core is intended to replace core files, not the website database, uploads, plugins, or themes. Still, verify the website afterward.
Scope: A successful core integrity check does not prove the entire website is malware-free. Unwanted code can exist in plugins, themes, uploads, or other account directories.
