5 months ago Sorry to say. The same issue still happens, both in 3.6 rc and the newest nightly, 5f1465f7bf.
When installing an existing plugin from a zip file, it will disappear from the menu until it is disabled and re-enabled in the plugin dialog.

What is the bug or the crash?
When doing plugin development, I am sometimes reinstalling my plugin from zip. Most times, if not always, I will then have to disable and reenable the plugin to get it enabled. It seems as if the newly updated plugin is disabled even though the enable checkbox is checked.
My plugin Altitude corrector is accessible:
After having reinstalled it from the zipfile, it seems to still be active:
But it has disappeared from the menu.
This is also an issue when updating to a new version from the plugin repository.
Steps to reproduce the issue
Install a plugin, see that any menu item for the plugin is visible Reinstall the same plugin from zip file, the menu item is gone. Disable and reenable the plugin, the menu item is back

This bug report is written from a windows 11 machine, but I do see the same issue on a ubuntu machine also running v3.34-3
