Hello.

I'm trying to figure out how to disable (not uninstall) plugins in Eclipse Luna.

I've tried to see if there was any runtime options or button in the 'Installation Details' section but all I see is 'Uninstall'.

Plugins can not be disabled, per se. However, Eclipse uses a lazy loading architecture, which means (the vast majority of) plugins are not actually activated or loaded into memory unless the user does something to trigger them.
What is it that you want to accomplish that you think "disabling" would help with?

In that case, is there a way to view currently active/loaded in plugins?

And I just had the misconception that everything is loaded at start-up (I just wanted to reduce loading times & memory usage).

Please open the Console view and in its toolbar find the "Open Console" dropdown. In that dropdown menu select "Host
OSGi Console". When the console is open enter the command "ss" (show status) and press Enter.
