We can’t delete media files without disabling the plugin first. The support log show no answer for more than a month and the last update was 3 months ago. I can be wrong but I presume this plugin is dead. Shame, I liked this plugin. And I suspect that one 5 star rating was not a real rating. ![](https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/652af40b04716a9ea9c1e3d2a068a93c44cdbe5216506ab0af29950bc96e4a6c? s=60&d=retro&r=g) ### 󠀁[Top-Notch Plugin for Media Library WebP Image Conversion](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/top-notch-plugin-for-media-library-webp-image-conversion/)󠁿 [Wilson Santana](https://profiles.wordpress.org/oliveira7/) agosto 8, 2025 English Review This plugin delivers everything it promises and more.

That’s strange given that compression is not a resource-intensive task. This plugin brings back the true spirit of WordPress. It’s simple, intuitive, and free for everyone. It’s so good, I even made a video for this plugin.
