While this option specifically relates to presets, it can also hide plug-ins as I found. So, unless you have a specific requirement to use it, you are strongly advised to leave the setting in the default unchecked position. This particular setting has very limited useful applications, and when used unwisely or without proper knowledge of its implications it can (and often does) cause a certain amount of chaos.
There is an option available in the Lightroom Preferences (Edit Menu>Preferences on Windows, Lightroom Menu>Preferences on a Mac), where you will see on the Presets Tab an option to “Store presets with catalog”. I soon located this useful Lightroom forums post which deals with the obscure “Store presets with catalog” setting in Lightroom: As it happens, there were no significant glitches, except, afterwards, my Nik Collection had apparently “disappeared”. I’d been putting off importing all the older stuff for over a year since I attacked the previous years’ files immediately before I change to Lightroom. I had decided to import the residue of my old Aperture library that has been sitting there since I changed over the Lightroom a couple of years ago. I immediate suspected foul play involving a big dose of housekeeping done the previous day. Last weekend, however, I noticed that all plug-ins, with the exception of Color Efex Pro for some reason, had disappeared from the Edit dialogue box. Right click on an image, go to “Edit In” and the full list of available plugins was presented. Since I upgraded to Lightroom Creative Cloud subscription-based applications my Nik Software plugins-Color, Silver and Analog Efex Pro, Dfine, Sharpener Pro and Viveza-have been working flawlessly. Leave this box unticked unless your workflow requires it (see the Lightroom Forum thread below)
