Plugin Status
A plugin can have four different Status values, with additional texts in the Details area.
Plugin Status: Enabled
• If the plugin was enabled in a previous session, the plugin is enabled and ready for use.
• If the plugin has been enabled during this session, it will be loaded when you restart Reason.
Plugin Status: Disabled
• If the plugin was manually disabled in a previous session, it’s now disabled.
• If the plugin has been manually disabled during this session, it will be disabled when you restart Reason.
Plugin Status: Could not load
• If the plugin has the “Could not load” status, the plugin returned an error code and couldn’t be loaded.
If you enable it, Reason will attempt to load it the next time you restart.
Plugin Status: Crashed
• If the plugin has the “Crashed” status, it was automatically disabled because it crashed or caused Reason to
hang.
If you enable it, Reason will attempt to load it the next time you restart.
