User reviews

I have been using this exstension for awhile now, lately however it has been disappearing from my context menu. It is still installed among my extensions but not usable from the rightclick menu. The only way I have found to make it reappear in my context menu is to uninstall it and then reinstall. is there another fix for this? UPDATE 3/15/2024 to above no longer shows in context menu whatsoever
