## Descripció

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.

## Instal·lació

#### Automatic installation

The easiest way to install Force Reinstall is through the automatic installation
option. To do this, simply log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins
menu, and click on “Add New.”

In the search field, type “Force Reinstall,” and click on “Search Plugins.” Once
you find our plugin, you can view details such as the rating, description, and the
current version. To install the plugin, click on “Install Now,” and let WordPress
handle the file transfer for you.

#### Manual installation

 1. Download the plugin zip file from the source (such as the WordPress plugin repository).
 2. Log in to your WordPress dashboard, navigate to the Plugins menu, and click “Add
    New.”
 3. Click the “Upload Plugin” button at the top of the page.
 4. Choose the plugin zip file you downloaded and click “Install Now.”
 5. Once the installation is complete, click the “Activate Plugin” button.
 6. You can now access the plugin through “Force Reinstall” option in the admin menu.

## PMF

### What if I need to reset changes made to a plugin or theme?

You can simply use the Force Reinstall option to revert any changes made to the 
plugin or theme back to its original state.

### Why do some plugins or themes not have the Force Reinstall option?

This is likely because the plugin or theme was not installed from WordPress.org 
and therefore does not have a download link available.

### Will my data be affected when I use the Force Reinstall option?

No, your data will not be affected. The Force Reinstall option only replaces the
plugin or theme files and does not modify any data or settings associated with the
plugin or theme.

### 󠀁[A fantastic utility plugin](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/a-fantastic-utility-plugin/)󠁿

 [SiteBolts](https://profiles.wordpress.org/sitebolts/) 20 de gener de 2024

We found this plugin a month ago and it’s been insanely helpful for both cleaning
off malware and repairing botched plugin updates. The only issue we’ve found is 
that it can’t reinstall premium plugins whose licenses have expired, but that’s 
not really the plugin’s fault. Overall, it’s a fantastic tool to have on hand.
