Features & Capabilities

Browser Tamer for Firefox integrates the Windows Browser Tamer app with Mozilla Firefox, letting you open links and pages in other browsers with a single click. Install the Browser Tamer Windows app (https://github.com/aloneguid/bt) and add this extension to enable right-click "Open with Browser Tamer" and a toolbar button to send the current page to another browser.

The extension also provides a custom protocol handler to open links directly into Firefox Containers (requires Browser Tamer v3.3+). You can invoke the handler from the command line or via links like ext+bt:name=MyContainer&url=https://mozilla.org. Windows only — designed to streamline multi-browser workflows and containerized browsing.

for me, when the button is clicked it just closes the current firefox window and the installed Brower Tamer application does not show anything.

Is Browser Tamer Safe?

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.

Browser Tamer requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

Critical Grants access to browser tabs, which can be used to track user browsing habits and history, presenting a privacy concern.

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 Add-ons Store, 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.

Browser Tamer may not be trust-worthy. Avoid installing if possible unless you really trust this publisher.
