Plugin can't be customized or used?

Hi, I'm going to be very upfront about the fact that I am a complete idiot, and this is undoubtedly somehow my fault, but I'm hoping someone smarter than me will be able to help me figure it out.

My laptop died a bitter and sudden death and I wasn't able to export all of my Calibre settings, though I do have my libraries. So I've been trying to set up all the plugins and everything I had before, and it's all gone fine, except Generate Cover, which just...doesn't appear when I install it. I can find it on the list of installed plugins, but not as a menu option, and when I try to customize it, it says I need to restart Calibre before I can customize this plugin.

No matter how many times I restart Calibre, I get the same message. The plugin still won't show up on the menu, and won't let me customize it. I've uninstalled it, reinstalled it, restarted Calibre a thousand times, restarted my entire computer several times, tried downloading the zip version and loading it that way...nothing is working.

I absolutely cannot figure out what I've done wrong, and I'm not even getting error messages that could give me (or someone, at least) a clue. Does anyone know what I screwed up, and how I could fix it?

Thanks in advance!
