    I am pretty sure that a plugin does not have the ability to affect a protected Server folder.  The /tmp folder on a Server is a protected Server folder meaning that it does allow access to and writing to that folder, but does not allow changing anything about the /tmp folder itself such as permissions.  It is possible though that something you have installed is blocking the access and writing to the /tmp folder from your dashboard.  The obvious thing to try would be to deactivate all of your plugins except for BPS Pro.  BPS Pro does not do anything related to a Server’s /tmp folder so this problem is not caused by BPS Pro.

    I thought of something that you should check.  Check your wp-admin folder and look for a php.ini file in your wp-admin folder.  If you find a php.ini file then download it and open it to see what is in that php.ini file.

    Also BPS Pro has its own built-in upload zip installer so for testing install the BPS Pro zip file using the BPS Pro upload zip installer.  Click the BPS Pro Install / Backup menu link.

    Installation works just fine. Updating is the only thing which doesnt work.

    Since you have completed that upload zip installation troubleshooting test and it worked fine then that means that most likely the problem is isolated to WordPress itself and NOT a Server issue.  Reinstall WordPress on the Updates page.

    If you cannot reinstall WordPress on the Updates page then you will need to download the wordpress zip file, unzip it on your computer and then upload all the WordPress folders and files.
