Critical error because of deprecated php. files

Replies: 0

Hello,

i get this debug message when i try to send a test email.

Deprecated: class-phpmailer.php is deprecated since version 5.5.0! Use wp-includes/PHPMailer/PHPMailer.php instead. The PHPMailer class has been moved to wp-includes/PHPMailer subdirectory and now uses the PHPMailer\PHPMailer namespace. in C:——————-\wp-includes\functions.php on line 4963

Deprecated: class-smtp.php is deprecated since version 5.5.0! Use wp-includes/PHPMailer/SMTP.php instead. The SMTP class has been moved to the wp-includes/PHPMailer subdirectory and now uses the PHPMailer\PHPMailer namespace. in C:———————-\wp-includes\functions.php on line 4963

Fatal error: Cannot declare class PHPMailer\PHPMailer\SMTP, because the name is already in use in C:—————-\wp-includes\PHPMailer\SMTP.php on line 30

Can somebody please guide my through this. What is it i have to change?

Thanks in advance

Womme
