      In the Options dialog's Naming Scripts section, there are two types of checkmarks, with two different functions. 

       

      (#0) This checkmark apparently means: are ANY scripts ALLOWED to run?

      (#1)  The checkmark next to each script looks like it means the same:

      • "enable/disable this script from being allowed to run", 
      •  for example, "is this allowed to be shown in the context menu when you right-click a track in the main screen?"

      but this checkmark actually means

      • "Should I run this automatically on all files without prompting?"

       

      Suggested fix is quite easy: 

      • add the words "Run automatically?" above the checkmarks.
      • (Bonus) add the word "Enable" next to checkmark #0, as in "Enable tagger scripts".
