I want to delete a plugin installed within IntelliJ, but within the UI the corresponding Uninstall button is disabled, see here:
What can I do now?
This is bundled with IDE installation plugin, that can not be un-installed. Just disable it if you do not want it to load.

I've recently installed the Cursive plugin for IntelliJ IDEA. At first startup, a popup asks whether ClojureDocs examples should be downloaded:
I clicked on "Don't ask me again" by mistake, instead of "Download". This only happens on the first startup of the plugin, so there's no chance of getting the choice again (as explained in the relevant documentation).
How do I get this installed? As I'm fairly new to the language and environment, I find the examples of great help.
I've searched for a setting that would allow the plugin to ask again, or to initiate the download - no success.
I've tried to disable then enable the plugin (including restarts of the IDE) - no success.
I've tried to uninstall then reinstall the plugin (including restarts of the IDE) - no success. It seems to remember the old setting.
I imagine removing some configuration file or option would do the trick.
This applies to IntelliJ IDEA version 2020.3 and Cursive version 1.10.0-2020.3 - the Cursive plugin has already been installed and is active.
On menu go to File > Settings, in Settings Language & Frameworks > Clojure, heading Documentation Options, click Update.
Others have written to simply right-click the plugin to install, and then "Uninstall" will show up. But for me, right-clicking does nothing.
I am using Linux if that makes a difference. Thanks.
Try the Installed tab instead of the Marketplace.
Here's the official tutorial: https://www.jetbrains.com/help/idea/managing-plugins.html#remove-plugin
In the Settings/Preferences dialog ⌘,, select Plugins.
Open the Installed tab and find the plugin that you want to remove.
Click The down arrow next to the Disable/Enable button and select Uninstall from the dropdown menu.
Go to File, Settings, Plugins, Installed, right click on the plugin, Uninstall or disable in case the plugin cannot be uninstalled directly on IntelliJ.
I had been developing an application on a trial version of IntelliJ 2016 Ultimate. Since the trial version ran out, I resumed work using the Community Edition. However, trying to launch my application yielded the following error:
Unknown run configuration type #com.intellij.j2ee.web.tomcat.TomcatRunConfigurationFactory
"No problem" I thought, just an incompatible plugin that was installed with Ultimate that I don't really need anyway. I opened the Plugins section of the Preferences menu, but I can't find the plugin in question. Below is a partial screenshot of the plugin list where I would expect to see the plugin listed in the error message.
The configuration can also not be edited from the Run/Debug Configurations menu, but lists the Run Configuration error as: "Broken configuration due to unavailable plugin or invalid configuration data."
Am I really unable to uninstall the Ultimate plugin preventing my run configuration from working from the Community Edition? What can I do to fix this if so?
It's have been a long time since this question was launched but it might be useful for new searches.
I got the same error with Dart and Flutter.
Just go to Menu >> File >> Settings. Then type plugins on the search box. Check if your plugins need to be updated (in my case Dart and Flutter). I the screenshot I had clicked in the "update" green button. So it turns into "Restart IDE" text. It should fix the problem once you restart the IDE.
To the best of my knowledge the community edition of IDEA will not load and run plugins that are not compatible with it. Moreover, by default, the community edition uses a different configuration directory than the Ultimate edition. So unless you modified the config directory to use, the community version should not be picking up the Ultimate Edition's plugins. Based on the error you show, I think the issue is you simply need to delete that Run configuration. The error is saying that that Run configuration wants to use a Plugin (The Tomcat Plugin) that is not available (i.e. not installed).
If you still want to confirm what plugins are installed, you can manually uninstall a plugin by removing it from the plugins directory. Note that some plugins are simply a standalone JAR, in the plugins directory, others are sub-directories within the plugins directory. Just delete the JAR or sub-directory.
That plugins directory is the idea config directory. See Directories used by the IDE to store settings, caches, plugins and logs for information on its location. On windows for example, by default it will be:
Ultimate: C:\Users\UserName\.IntelliJIdea2016\config\plugins
Community: C:\Users\UserName\..IdeaIC2016\config\plugins
UPDATE
I forgot to mention... bundled plugins are in ${idea-install-directory}/plugins. So for the ultimate edition, the Tomcat plugin is in ${idea-install-directory}/plugins/Tomcat. That is why, as you mentioned in your comment below, you are not seeing that plugin in the user installed plugin directory I mentioned above.
updating flutter and android studio worked in my
case
Simple upgrade Dart plugin..
Go to Settings/Plugins/Browse Repositories and search dart (Language) and upgrade
this will work.
I had a similar worded issue "Run Configuration Error: Broken configuration due to unavailable plugin or invalid configuration data."
In the bottom right part of the Rider IDE, you will see a popup that says
"Plugin supporting feature (Run Configuration[UNITY_ATTACH_AND_PLAY]) is currently disabled."
Click enable plugins, and restart when Rider asks you to do so.
If this does not work, remember that one possible reason is the issues with macOS indexing (my Macbook started to malfunction after its battery hit 0). A way to check is to try and search a file from the top right corner(). If you can not find existing files, this means macOS messed up with indexing.
To solve it, click Apple icon on top left side and go to System Preferences -> Spotlight -> Privacy Tab -> Add all folders to the "won't index" box -> Remove everything you have added so they get reindexed.

Lastly, go to Rider and hit File -> Invalidate Caches and Restart.
I wonder if there is a way to tell to the IDE to autosave any file if modified. I've searched the web but I haven't find anything. There was a module on NetBeans 7 but it is not available now on NB 8. Anyway it appears that the old plugin can be set to execute save all on a given interval. What I want is a feature to save when you modify something just like in Intellij IDEA.
Thanks
This plugin also saves when the file loses focus: Plugin
I would also prefer something like IntelliJ's Android Studio, but I don't think it exists for Netbeans.
I downloaded the below netbeans plugin. It will automatically save after every 1 second once installed. it was built for Netbeans 8.1 and not tested for the version 8.2 but it worked for me.
Netbeans 8.2 AutoSave Download Link
Install in Netbeans via Tools > Plugins > Downloaded and click on add "Add plugins..." button
In NetBeans 12.4 the module options can be changed from the section below and you don't have to download a plugin.
Tools > Options > Editor > Autosave section.
(also it is in version 12.5. I didn't find it in version 12.0)
How to export installed plugins from eclipse?
I want to use some of my installed plugins in another eclipse machine.
I don't want to download those again.
Regards
Start fresh and install plugins from an old install
The idea here is that you want to keep your old install intact, download a new indigo package (http://download.eclipse.org/) and just adds the existing plugins to your install. With Indigo this is now made super easy!
Step 1: Download and unzip your Indigo install: http://download.eclipse.org
Step 2: Import your plug-ins from your previous install by doing File > Import > Install > From existing install, pick your old install, select the plug-ins and there you go! You can chose to go piece meal, or chose to pick several entries, in any event dependency analysis will be performed to check the validity of the install.
Step 3: Click next a couple times and patiently wait for the bytes to download to your machine. Then restart and enjoy!

You can export the list of the features and plugins by going to File->Export->Install.
I’m bringing a really old thread to life here, but there’s a much more comfortable way to export your Eclipse plug-ins and use your setup on another machine now.
On http://profiles.yatta.de you can download the Yatta Launcher for Eclipse, which allows you to export your Eclipse & workspace setup (including your plug-in setup).
Export and installation are pretty straight forward:
Download the Launcher from http://profiles.yatta.de and start it
The tool will automatically discover your Eclipse installations. Find the one you want to export in the list (they are all named after your workspaces).
Click the Upload & Share button (the blue one) on the right of the entry you want to export.
(You won’t actually “share” your Eclipse or workspace with anyone. You’ll just upload a setup file with your metadata that only you have access to yourself. You could share this later, but you can also just keep it as a backup).
This solution does not only allow you to reuse your eclipse plug-in setup, but also your configured Git & task repositories and many other setup-specific settings.
Along with update sites, p2 can treat existing Eclipse installations as a source for the plugins to be installed.
If you access the Eclipse folder in another machine (which has the plugins installed) via shared folder in the network , then in your new Eclipse, open Preferences->Install/Update->Available Software Sites->Add->Local-> browse to the Eclipse->p2->org.eclipse.equinox.p2.engine->profileRegistry and select the profile.
Now in the target Eclipse you can install those plugins as if you are installing from an update site.
P2 (the bundle provisioning system) provides functionalities for shared bundle pooling, see
http://wiki.eclipse.org/Equinox/p2/Getting_Started#Bundle_pooling
It seems that feature is on its way: http://bugs.eclipse.org/282419
I don't know how to export a installed plugin,
but this answer helps for reinstalling an eclipse plugin from another eclipse installation. (How Do You Reinstall Installed Eclipse Plugins?)

How To Add Perspectives In Eclipse?
You can simply copy the plug in folder from the other machine --(may be on a pendrive or cd )-- whatever suits you.
Then go to your ecplise,
File > Import... > Plug-in Development --> Plug-ins and Fragments Click "Next"
[Import From] -- Directory. Browse your plugins folder
Just Hit "Next"
From the left box, select individual or you may want to add all of it. Just hit
"AddAll ->"
And Just Hit "Next"
and there on just sit back let it do all the import work.
Dropping the right jars from your plugins directory to the target installation plugins directory should do the trick.
