Manage Extensions
The Manage Extensions feature lets you install, enable, disable, uninstall, and update browser extensions across your profiles. You can install extensions from ZIP files or Chrome Web Store links.
Caution: Avoid installing sensitive extensions (such as crypto wallets or 2FA authenticators) through this feature, as data security and backups are not guaranteed. Install critical extensions directly within individual profiles instead.
