So upon running gsettings set org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions "['ubuntu- d...@ubuntu.com', 'ubuntu-appindicat...@ubuntu.com']"
the previous org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions ['gsconn...@andyholmes.github.io', 'ubuntu-d...@ubuntu.com', 'ubuntu-appindicat...@ubuntu.com', 'sound-output-device-choo...@kgshank.net', 'darkthemetog...@jacob.mischka.me', 'desktop-c...@schneegans.github.com', 'audio-output-switcher@anduchs', 'clipboard-indica...@tudmotu.com', 'nightthemeswitc...@romainvigier.fr'] org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions ['nightshellswitc...@romainvigier.fr', 'caffe...@patapon.info'] becomes: org.gnome.shell enabled-extensions ['ubuntu-d...@ubuntu.com', 'ubuntu-appindicat...@ubuntu.com'] org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions ['nightshellswitc...@romainvigier.fr', 'caffe...@patapon.info'] So it seems that deleting extensions via the extensions app/firefox extension settings interfaces does not work, even if they become invisible. Note, I removed gsconnect in ubuntu 20.x i.e. at least a year ago, one or two upgrades ago. Similarly, these disabled extensions: nightshellswitc...@romainvigier.fr' and 'caffe...@patapon.info still seem to be installed. These should have been removed from my system months ago. Is there a similar command that would remove those entries also? Maybe: gsettings set org.gnome.shell disabled-extensions "[]" Nevertheless, the gnome-shell memory use continues to increase after reboot: 12:47 249 MB 14:47 430 MB 14:58 505 MB 15:04 548 MB 15:38 784 MB 15:45 843 MB 15:46 853 MB 15:48 867 MB 15:53 900 MB -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1955058 Title: gnome-shell memory use climbs to multiple GBs Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Incomplete Bug description: Gnome Shell memory use grows over time Memory for Gnome Shell can be around 2.5 GB, sometimes more. If I do Alt-F2 r to restart shell, it drops to 250 MB and then slowly climbs up again. Occasionally it goes so high on my 16 GB machine that it swaps and crashes.
