I installed this extension because I'm trying to use the Thorium browser: which has a number of very serious deficiencies. For example, you can't even change the home page, and there is no real help or support for that browser. This extension does help to a limited extent; but, unfortunately, it does not fill in the functionality missing in Thorium. I can't really find fault with this, as the developer intended this for a competently designed version of Chromium, I just want others to know that if you're having problems with Thorium settings, this will only help a little.
