Breez ClickOnce is a specialized Chrome extension designed to enable ClickOnce support in Mozilla Firefox browsers. ClickOnce technology allows users to launch Windows Forms and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) applications easily. Since Firefox does not natively support ClickOnce protocols, Breez ClickOnce bridges this gap by facilitating smooth launching of ClickOnce-based apps directly from Firefox.

This extension is essential for users who rely on Microsoft ClickOnce technology for deploying and running Windows applications and want to use Firefox as their browser. It ensures compatibility and a seamless user experience without requiring additional software or complex configurations. Breez ClickOnce is ideal for professionals and organizations who need to access ClickOnce applications across different platforms efficiently.

User reviews

Breez ClickOnce is praised for reliably launching ClickOnce applications on Firefox, with users appreciating its seamless functionality and reliability as a replacement for older solutions. It is essential for specialized uses like Office365 eDiscovery. However, multiple users report issues with the helper application's installation process, including lack of automatic prompts and errors, requiring manual installation. Its Windows-only compatibility limits broader use. Admin users seek better deployment options such as installing the helper system-wide and suppressing installation info pages.

Pros

Works as advertised without complications.
Effectively launches ClickOnce applications, succeeding where others failed.
Critical for running Office365 eDiscovery on Firefox.
Stable and reliable replacement for older ClickOnce solutions.
Helpful for admins deploying across multiple computers.

Cons

Requires installation of a native helper application, which some users find inconvenient or problematic.
Helper installation process can be error-prone and not always seamless.
Only works on Windows operating systems.
No built-in option to suppress informational pages or prompts after installation.

Extension safety

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Breez ClickOnce requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Breez ClickOnce has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
