Hi,

I have noticed that in the latest versions of DNN, you can choose to uninstall a module WITHOUT deleting the files (there's a box you need to check if you want them to be deleted). However, if you do unistall keeping the files, there is no easy way to reinstall that module, is it?

That is, you just keep the files but you cannot "turn the module back on" through any DNN interface. If you want to reinstall it, you have to re-download the PA for the module, and go through the install process again. Am I correct?

Wouldn't it be neat if the files were just moved to the install folder, so that they remain available for easy reinstallation just checking a box as with all other modules that are distributed with DNN but not installed by default?

Perhaps it would be a nice feature to include in future versions of DNN, it doesn't sould like it would be too complex to implement...

Take care,
