Thank you for responding. This provided access to the backend but I can't keep it on a server that is shared because of security reasons.
Has resolved some of the errors but the backend has errors popping up in customers, orders, and possibly others. I'm still looking for other options to resolve all of the errors.
I don't find the modules that were installed in the list in the backend so now that I can get in, I may re-install both to see if that helps.
as a last resort I may see if I can use the auto update within the backend as 8.2 is available and this install was 8.1.7. This might introduce more issues but at present a full remove and reinstall is the only option and since my customer has made changes to their store, has 500 items, 8 years of transactional data, and close to 1000 customers in their database I really don't want to set them back to "start".
Thank you for your help. It has allowed me back in to.
