Control and manage your Chrome plugins

What is Plugins?
"Plugins" is a comprehensive Chrome extension that enables users to manage their browser plugins, extensions, themes, and permissions efficiently. It provides users with a simplified interface, accessible via a toolbar button or a keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+Shift+E). The current version features a robust Plugins Manager, a Permission Scanner for reviewing extension permissions, and quick links for managing extension shortcuts, components, and global permissions. Designed for privacy, it does not collect user data and offers affiliate links for additional protection options.
