If I rename the file "plugins/system/admintools/admintools/main.php" to "main-disable.php" the backend works but if I enable it again I only have a blank screen on my backend even if my IP is not blocked. This append as I upgraded to Admin Tools 4.2.0.
At the moment I run my site whithout protection but would like to fix this asap. Thanks and best regards

Joomla! seems to have forgotten to copy some of the updated files when installing the update. It is a bug in Joomla! and only happens to very few people. Every time we release an update we have a few of you reporting it. No problem, it should be easy to work around it.

  • Extract the ZIP file of Admin Tools.
  • Find the lib_fof30.zip file inside it.
  • Extract the lib_fof30.zip.
  • Copy all the files from the fof folder into your site's libraries/fof30 folder. WARNING! DO NOT copy the files into your site's fof folder.


After that you should be able to log back into your site's backend. Then please try installing Admin Tools 4.2.0 again, without uninstalling it before.
