Are the files 'physically' still there?
If yes, I'd suspect Reaper wrote something invalid to its preference file as a result of getting confused by the operator error (trying to open removed item). Try deleting Reaper's preference file and launching it again. It will launch in default state like when you first installed it. Or copy the preference file from your backup (from before the error happened).

TIL you apparently need to 'unregister' plugins in addition to removing them or they still show up in the list in Reaper. Is that right?
