I think it would be better to point out it was a Wordpress website

This error appears when you have a corrupted archive file or another extension than .zip

First of all check those;

1-) Is your plugin's extension .zip?
2-) If it it .zip, double check if it is corrupted.
3-) If first two are fine (which i doubt), then you should manually upload the plugin.

To manually upload the plugin;
1-) Login to your FTP
2-) Browse to wp-content/plugins folder
3-) Open zip file on your computer
4-) Drag the folder from Winzip/Winrar to your wp-content/plugins folder.
5-) Browse to your Plugins section in your Wordpress admin
6-) Hover on your new Plugin and click install and then activate it.

I hope this helps.

Try re-installing wordpress and make sure that your plugin is a zip file. U might be trying to extract the plugin from zip file and uploading it.
This will give error.

You won't get any help here because it isn't the right place.

Ofcourse someone helped already lol

I think you are not uploading the plugin files in right way. Upload them in zip format.
