Is there any way to accelerate the plugin troubleshooting?

From [extensions, themes and hardware acceleration issues to solve common Firefox problems]:

> Note: If you have a large number of extensions, it may be quicker to enable more than one extension at a time. The method with the fewest number of restarts required is: Enable half the extensions in this list, then restart Firefox and test for the problem. If the problem reoccurs, you know that the faulty extension is one of the ones you just enabled. If the problem does not occur, you know the faulty extension is one of the disabled ones. Repeat the process until the faulty extension is found.

That's still slow. Is there a way to make this process quicker? In WordPress or Obsidian there is a plugin to handle this.

The "extensions" folder in the profile folder allows you to quickly add/remove many xpi files in one operation then restart the browser for it to take effect.
