Hey Chris,
Thank you for using Yoast SEO and for reaching out!
I can definitely understand it’s frustrating experiencing a fatal error when you are installing any update. It would be very helpful to understand what is happening and what fatal is occuring, rather than directly restoring a backup. A fatal can happen by a lot of things, a broken update, where not all files are extracted as they should, a conflict on your site with another plugin or theme, or a server/hosting related issue. As you are running Yoast SEO Premium on your site, please reach out to us directly if you want to investigate this together, as support for our paid plugins is not allowed on these forums. Thank you so much.
