All extensions have been deleted for no reason

Browser Support Desktop Support

Description of the issue:
Since this morning, all my extensions are gone. My history and bookmarks (maybe because of synchronization) remain.
I also noticed that my search engine changed to Qwant…
I went in AppData\Local\BraveSoftware\Brave-Browser\User Data\Default\Extensions and the folder is empty.

How can this issue be reproduced?

1.The only thing that happened is a windows update yesterday night when shutting down the computer (update and shut down): 2023-01 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 for x64-based Systems (KB5022287)
2.
3.

Expected result:
Extensions back when rebooting

Brave Version( check About Brave):

v1.46.153

Additional Information:
I use Windows 11 and did another windows update (version 22H2) after seeing the issue.

Hello @clem3

Thanks for bringing this to our attention and I’m sorry that you lost your extensions. Please create a new profile just for testing and install one of the extensions you had then restart Brave, reopen the new profile and see if it works, then reinstall each extension you previously had one by one to determine if it was one of those extensions that caused the issue.

Be waiting for your response!
