          Hi,

          Sorry for late response, I must have missed your reply. I think you probably downloaded woocommerce plugin from location other than the official wordpress.org repository? Please try to delete it and use the package from wordpress.org: https://downloads.wordpress.org/plugin/woocommerce.4.0.1.zip
