 I've recently copied and modified a small plugin from wp-org for my own
 need.
 I've set the {{{Update URI: false}}} header. However on the Plugins page,
 the View Details link still leads to the original plugin and the
 Enable/Disable auto-updates button link is present.

 I've changed the main plugin file name to something else, but not the
 directory name, however the View Details link is still present.

 I've removed the {{{readme.txt}}} file and that seems to do the trick.

 To test this, I've then tried restoring the {{{readme.txt}}} file, removed
 the {{{Update URI: false}}} header and renamed the plugin file to its
 original wp-org name. The View Details link was NOT restored.

 However, changing the plugin file name to something new again DID restore
 the View Details link. The experience has been very inconsistent
 throughout.

 I'm running a LocalWP installation on Windows 10.
 WordPress 6.4.2
 PHP 8.2
 VSCode editor.

 This is not a long-term problem for me as I intend to rename the plugin
 file AND directory name, but thought I'd report this bug for the record.
