What

The message for a plugin that is installed but not running now tells you whether it ships disabled or whether your own settings turned it off.

Details
  • Applies to both the install result message and the plugin-not-enabled diagnostic.
  • Distinguishes plugins disabled by default from plugins disabled in your settings.
  • The enable hint still follows either variant.
Evidence

. This plugin is disabled in your settings

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
