Does anybody have the “how-to-rollback-a-version” tutorial and could paste it here?
Thanx
1. Download 1.9.13
2. Deactivate plugin.
3. Reupload 1.9.13 files to plugin folder. Replace existing files.
4. Activate plugin.

Generally speaking rolling back plugins or WordPress is considered a Really Bad Idea™.
However if you visit http://ww.wp.xz.cn/plugins/nextgen-gallery/developers/ you can download from there old copies and manually install the older version of the plugin yourself.

@sellrion and @jan, thanx it worked for me.
I had the same problem with the latest update breaking my site home page and just wanted to post a work around which may help some.
First… If you can’t log in from your home page, select: (site name)/wp-admin
The next steps require that you have previously saved an earlier version. You can download the previous version at: http://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/nextgen-gallery.1.9.13.zip
Second… Install and activate Easy Theme and Plugin Updater from WordPress http://downloads.wp.xz.cn/plugin/easy-theme-and-plugin-upgrades.1.0.1.zip
Third… Install the earlier NextGen Gallery with the upload function, but select the update current version box.
The problem (or at least my problem) is with the gallery display, so removing any shortcode calling a gallery may also fix your site temporarily.
While it may not be the best idea to roll back a version, if you have the problem with this defective as installed version of Next Generation Gallery I had, this roll-back may be your quickest fix.
Thank you FNGeditor for a solution and links to download zip files. NextGen’s website is not a valid resource right now….!!!
