Description

I installed 55.0.2883.87-1 on my 64 bit Windows 10.

When I installed extension NOT from the store in the Chrome extension section I see like the extension is from the store.

If I installed extension, which IS from the store I see Not from Chrome Web Store for this extension.

Could somebody explain, why is like that?

Research direction
Investigate the extension display logic in Chromium's browser UI, focusing on how extensions are labeled as 'from Chrome Web Store' or not. The issue body describes a user seeing incorrect labels. There are 11 comments that may contain maintainer insights. Relevant files likely include chrome/browser/extensions/extension management.cc and chrome/browser/ui/extensions/extension installed bubble.cc. Determine if the bug is a UI string issue or a mismatch in the internal store status flag.
