Here’s a list of what is accomplished during an automated deployment:

The Force Reinstall plugin is a useful tool for when you need to reinstall a plugin or theme on your WordPress site. Whether you’ve experienced a broken update, suspect your plugins may have been affected by malware, or simply need to reset changes you’ve made to a plugin, this plugin can help.
With just one click, Force Reinstall sets the plugin or theme as needing an update, which forces WordPress to reinstall the plugin or theme. This is only a temporary setting and will be reset when you visit the updates page or update a single plugin or theme. You don’t have to worry about any plugin or theme files being manipulated.
Give the Force Reinstall plugin a try and enjoy the peace of mind that comes with knowing your plugins and themes are intact and up to date.
This plugin also includes non-intrusive ads (shown only in the backend) that help support the ongoing development and maintenance of the plugin. Please see our privacy policy for information on data collection.

Force Reinstall

Helped me fix half updated wordpress extensions

Site saving plugin

I've installed the plugin and tried to force reinstallation for some plugin. There were no visual feedback to say if the reinstallation process worked. Also, I checked the files and they had not change.

I wanted the plugin to work and give a positive review. I finally used Sucuri Security to reinstall the plugins and it worked flawlessly.

I hope this feedback helps you make it better. I will revisit and adjust my review if you fix it.

Thank you for your work even if it did not help in my case.

The plugin does nothing

For some reason, the Sucuri function that does this, would not work, especially on localhost. This plugin did the trick for free/repo-based plugins.

I tested it by placing random comments in plugin files, and random files in the plugin's folder(s), and the force re-install removed all of it. This means that it overwrites the entire plugin, and does not just replace files one-by-one. Nice. Use this in bulk mode, to get the normal WP Dashboard feedback.

Worked great for free plugins

Very good
