    I’m not sure if this made a difference or not, but I tried updating in a different manner. The first time, I tried updating by going to (as I recall) Updates -> update WordPress plugin. This time, I went to Plugins -> Installed Plugins -> WordFence Security (in the list) -> update.

    In any event, the site is up to 6.0.17. ??

    I haven’t heard of this issue with installing Wordfence before — it might be that something on your server interrupted the installation process.

    On the chance that your host is running the LiteSpeed web server, this document will help your updates work more reliably — LiteSpeed uses short timeouts that often cause issues with updating:
