You were correct, it was a simple fix from something on their end

If I try make a backup of my site I get this issue:

Fail?? [/home/(FTPS_Username)/public_html/wp-content/backups-dup-lite]
Fail?? [/home/FTP_Username/public_html/wp-content/backups-dup-lite/tmp]
Warn?? [/home/FTP_Username/public_html]

If the root WordPress path is not writable by PHP on some systems this can cause issues.
If Duplicator does not have enough permissions then you will need to manually create the paths above.  

@threadi I also looked at my config file and didnt find the FS_method any where

Thank you for your response, so I’ve been working on the site without issue for several months, I upload blogs and videos 4/5 times a week and most recently uploaded on Monday, but since then I’ve had this issue.

I have three critical issues on my site, all of which are required updates. When I go to update I get this message: Update failed: unable to locate WordPress content directory

I think the issue is from my hosting side, I believe it may have to do with the permissions on their side, as like I said I’ve had no issues with the site for months until now

Thank you for your response, I work in South Africa so I host through Afrihost, normal cPanel.

i did try update through File Zilla and that didnt work either
