Download wordpress plugin from dashboard without FTP

I have looked through various other topics 1 2 on here, but they show how to upload plugins or download themes, but I’m wondering is there a way to download a plugin from the WordPress Dashboard without FTP access.

There is a modified version of a plugin that I want to download and then install on another site, but I do not have FTP access to the original website, only admin access to the dashboard. Is it possible to download all the plugin files – not just the ones listed in the Plugin Editor area?

  1. If you have the Plugin and Theme Editor turned off in WordPress, another alternative is installing a backup plugin such as Updraft Plus or BackWPUp or using your existing backup system and using that to download a copy of all files including plugin files.
