Note, if you have profiler installed, there will be "Profile" dialog, and if you have JaCoCo installed, there will be "Coverage" dialog and so on... BTW, by default there is also "External Tools Configuration" dialog.

Then I think 'Open {0} Configuration' will be more suitable

Adds a new button in the Run/Debug/etc Launch Configuration dialog for the “No Recent Launches” state. This allows users who accidentally click Run or Debug or Any launches without any recent configurations to quickly jump to the corresponding launch configuration group directly from the dialog, without closing it and navigating through the dropdown again.
This improves usability by providing a faster and more convenient recovery path when no recent launches are available.
