There is a thread discussing how to get a list of installed Plug-ins

> [@How to save a list of plugins](https://gramps.discourse.group/t/how-to-save-a-list-of-plugins/1992):
>
> Gramps 5.1.4, Fedora 35 Is there a way to save a list of all the installed plugins? Reports, views, rules … Everything that shows up in the Plugin Manager. Saving to TXT file or print to PDF would be fine. I want to compare the list among several computers to make sure they have the same set of plugins. I also want to document the list for future reference and installations. Thanks - Bill Gee

Since you were using the Plugin Manager Enhanced (good choice, by the way), the `new_addons.txt` file should be in the old User Directory. You can use it as a checklist for installing the 6.0 versions via the [Addon Manager](https://gramps-project.org/wiki/index.php/Gramps_Glossary#addon). (Those versions, at the very least, have different .gpr.py files with different versioning and additional attributes.) This will allow you to identify the addons that will have to be manually installed.

The other option (of taking an active reading of the installed plugins with SuperTool) would require re-installing a 5.1.x version.

The Plugin Manager Enhanced DOES exist for Gramps 6.0 installation. (Here’s the [.gpr.py](https://github.com/gramps-project/addons-source/blob/maintenance/gramps60/PluginManager/PluginManager.gpr.py) file for it so that you can see the name and category. And its listing in the [manifest](https://github.com/gramps-project/addons/blob/48edcc60e5ffba7642c93fc1108b607fa7e09522/gramps60/listings/addons-en.json#L869-L879) for the Addon&nbsp;Manager.)
