Trouble Installing Plugin

Hi There,
I am trying to install the Yoast SEO plugin but the error message says the file already exists. I have never downloaded Yoast before. How can i remove this ‘File’ when it doesn’t exist.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hithere,
re: yoast SEO plugin
You cannot upload and run the Yoast SEO plugin or any other blogger installed plugins on a site hosted by wordpress.COM. For that type of functionality you’d need a self-hosted WordPress.ORG software install running on a paid web hosting service.

We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
(1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
(2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.me/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin.
If you are referring to any site not hosted by wordpress.COM then you are posting to the wrong support forum.
WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/
If you don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG account, then click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right-hand corner of the page that opens, https://wordpress.org/support/register.php so you can post to the support forums there.
