Hi @philm,

Thanks for reporting this with the screen recording. This is a known limitation with how imported plugins are currently handled in the Settings > Plugins view. When a plugin is classified as an “imported” third-party plugin, the “Uninstall” button redirects to the third-party config settings instead of actually removing the plugin. The button label is misleading in this case.

For now, you can toggle the plugin off to disable it. We’re aware of this UX gap and it’s tracked internally.
