Well, that wasn't a good idea ...

I submitted a bug report over a missing camera for the automatic Lens Distortion Correction functionality in PSP 2018 and the response I got back told me to reset PSP. I did not see how that was going to fix a missing camera profile but I went ahead and did it. It did not fix the issue, and when I tried to set the app back to the state it had been in before the reset the first thing I tried was to add my plugins. The problem is that the File Locations entry under Preferences, where the plugin information is entered, is no longer there. All I have for entries are General Program References, File Format Preferences, File Format Associations, Autosave Settings and Switch Language.

Is there any way for me to get the File Locations entry back in the context menu so I can add my plugins?

File -> Workspaces-> Complete

Remember 2018 factory default starts off in "Essentials" mode which hides a lot of the more advanced settings for unknown reasons. When you reset the workspace to factory defaults it reset that as well.

Yes, I learned that a couple of weeks ago. But I had changed to Complete before I tried to update the plugin references. I was in Complete when I ran into this issue.

However, after reading your post and out of a sense of completeness, I went through the steps to reset the workspace, and that seemed to have fixed the problem. I do not know why resetting PSP and then changing to Complete left me in that state, but resetting the workspace after changing to Complete fixed the problem, so thank you.
