The 3rd party Plugins are listed in the extensions repo xml which is
downloaded as required by LMS from here
https://github.com/LMS-Community/lms-plugin-repository/blob/master/extensions.xml

The NPR plugin is listed as Maxversion of *"* which means no LMS version
restricitions.

Except keeping "Use unsupported extensions" setting unchecked, you can't
anything more - it is up to plugin developer to keep the data correct. 

What happened was 8.* released and my plugins had a max version then of
7.9.*
I hadn't tested the older plugin whether they worked with 8.* so it was
safeer to keep restrictions.
Usually there isn't a great takeup of 8.0.0 release - a lot of user wait
until 8.0.1 so it seemed like no pressure.
However 8.0.0 had a lot of on-line integration features and Tidal
support that meant there was a rush of "non-technical" users to update
followed by a rush of "complaint" about plugins not loading.

So with lots of caveats - I made a blanket change to all my plugins. I
removed what I thought were all the "old" plugin but NPR slipped by.

For those users who still wanted to use incompatible plugins whose
developer didn't update their repo xml - the Plugin "Use unsupported
extensions" setting was added to LMS.
