This is a common issue.  What  you did was you uploaded the main folder of the plugin instead of the sub folder.

 

Plugin folders have a main and a sub folder.

 

main/sub/files   you uploaded  main/sub/file

 

you should have uploaded  sub/files

 

so go into your ftp now and remove all of those and then upload the sub folder and you will see them.

 

Example: if i had a plugin named  myplugin   it would be stored in myplugin/myplugin/(all my files)

 

so when you upload just upload myplugin/(all my files)  instead of myplugin/myplugin/(all my files)

 

Let us know if you need more assistance.
