How to disable plugins in eclipse 3.6 Helios?

Question

I have eclipse 3.6, i have installed lot of plugins. But i want to disable some of the plugins but dont know how :( ( I don't want to uninstall them as i may need them in some time future when i work on other projects)

Answer 1

In preferences, General, Startup and Shutdown. A lot of plugins will appear there with checkboxes. With luck, the one you're hoping to disable appears there.

If your plugin doesn't appear there, then you either have to uninstall it, hope it provides an option to disable itself, or live with it.

Answer 2

You can uninstall them all by the next procedure:

Help > About Eclipse SDK > Installation Details > Installed Software Tab > Select a plug-in you want to Uninstall > Click Uninstall button at the bottom
