When is an Extension not an Extension

Why is it that some Extensions are not listed on the extension page but show up in the task manager as for instants
Extension: Opera Touch Background (Also could someone please explain what this actually does as ending the process doesn't seem to effect anything)
Extension: Video Handler
Extension: Background WorkerThese are apparently Extensions but none of them show in the extension page

"C:\Program Files\Opera\launcher.exe" --show-component-extension-options
That will show them.

Is it on shortcut?

@STARDAST You have to modify the shortcut's target command to pass that to launcher.exe. Then, make sure to close all Operas and then launch Opera using the shortcut. Or, just run the command in a command prompt when Opera is closed.

Hi, let me put the question differently. I recently saw a list of "extensions" or whatever we can call them and I don't know how some of them got installed or what they do, but I want to remove them. Is there e directory where they reside or other option to remove them? I don't think most of them are useful at all to me.
This is what I have:
Rich Hints Agent
Aliexpress observer
Amazon promotion
Background worker
Bookmarks
Chromium PDF Viewer
CryptoTokenExtension
Google Hangouts
News feed handler
Onboarding popup
Opera Crypto Wallet
Rate Opera
Stormcrow
Video handler -
