The command "burpsuite --disable-extensions" is used to start the Burp Suite application while explicitly disabling any installed extensions.
Burp Suite is a web application security testing tool widely used by security professionals to find vulnerabilities in web applications. It has a modular structure allowing users to add various extensions that enhance its functionality.
However, sometimes it may be necessary to start Burp Suite without any extensions enabled. This can be useful, for example, when troubleshooting issues or isolating problems caused by a specific extension.
By running the command "burpsuite --disable-extensions," you are instructing Burp Suite to start up with all extensions disabled. This means that any installed extensions will not be loaded or active during that session. It allows you to use the base functionality provided by Burp Suite, without any extensions interfering or causing potential conflicts.
