Hard Drive Icon Changed After Installing Hazel – Why?

Hello everyone,
I recently noticed that after installing the Hazel application on my Mac, the icon of my hard drive changed to the one shown in the attached image.

Before installing Hazel, the drive had the default macOS icon, but right after the installation, it switched automatically.

Does anyone know why this happens?
Is Hazel responsible for changing the icon? Or is there a system setting or feature within Hazel that causes this?

If anyone has experienced the same thing or knows the reason behind it, I’d really appreciate your input.
Thanks in advance!

It's a known issue with Apple's Finder plugin system. You can disable it though the instructions vary a bit depending on which version of macOS you are running but you can do it in System Settings.
