Este plug in no es confiable, es realmente un caso que nunca resuelven.

A extensão é muito útil para salvar os artigos direto do navegador sem a necessidade de salvá-los em seu computador, MAS ELA NÃO FUNCIONA DIREITO. A saída que eu encontrei foi fechar o navegador (primeiro tu precisas deixar a opção de continuar de onde você parou ativada no chrome) e ao abrir novamente, clicar imediatamente no botão da extensão do mendeley, o que tira completamente a praticidade no uso, mas pra mim ainda assim vale a pena. Se corrigirem o erro, vai tornar a extensão maravilhosa. Ainda assim agradeço ao mendeley por existir na minha vida haahaahah
