User Reviews

Hi, thanks for the add-on! I may have found a bug: in this file - https :// file-examples.com/wp-content/storage/2017/02/file-sample_500kB.docx - there should be a chart on page 1, however the add-on doesn't display it in the browser. I understand that may be a docxjs limitation, and if that's the case, perhaps the add-on should warn the user that it didn't manage to render all content? Also, could you please prevent the add-on from sending a notification saying it requires full access to open links with docx files every time the user restarts the browser? I specifically didn't provide that access.

Is DOCX Viewer 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.

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