About 1-Click Disable All

From the official readme · v1.0.4

Description

This lightweight tool adds a “Deactivate all” link to the Plugins page and a confirmation screen under Tools → Disable All Plugins.

Perfect for:
– Plugin conflict debugging
– Maintenance / emergency access recovery
– When a bad plugin locks you out of wp-admin

Important Warning: Deactivation is immediate. There is no “Reactivate All” button, so you must turn your plugins back on individually. Keep FTP access handy in case reactivating a plugin causes a fatal error.
