Notes
Advanced
If you are an advanced user you may install or use Maya plugins in another way. But i highly recommend using the described methods. If you are using another way of installation be sure to put the plugin files in folders that are stored in the Maya environment variables:

Python plugins   >   MAYA_PLUG_IN_PATH
Updates
Prior versions of a plugin can be replaced with newer ones without problems. So there is no need to remove older plugins when updating to a newer version.
