One by one?
No, you make some copies of your home directory: one not working (your
current one), one working (a fully cleaned one).
Then you delete some stuff from the bad one, until it works. Keep track
of the last things you deleted and then try to restart with a full dir
and delete only the last pieces.
If you prefer, start with the empty one and copy stuff until it breaks
(but deleting is easier than copying).

If you have 100 things to check, the first attempt should be to delete
50 of them.
This is called "bisection", you will find the answer much faster than
one-by-one.
