True. And not only when running out of disk space (which happens
sometimes to me, very small SSD...). And as I've come to know the cache
folder as unreliable I guess I was just surprised that LMS stores so
much in such a delicate place, esp. the *installed* plugins.
But ok, that's not going to change obviously...
so I suppose I better make to -manual- backup of my installed plugins as
suggested because most backup software does not include the cache
folder.

Once I tried to 'reinstall' a plugin by putting a copy of its folder
(named like the plugin) back into the -installed plugins- folder (the
one in the cache folder). All went well - until I tried to install
another plugin and the 'reinstalled' one had just disappeared.

Is reinstalling a plugin as simple as putting the folder back in the
-Installed Plugins- folder or is there more to consider? For example, is
there a file where LMS stores a list of installed plugins or does it
just scan the "installed plugins" folder?

Thanks for your help.
