Popup disappears after selecting image. Cannot select "set favicon" as it is not shown. Please work on this.

It does not work, unfortunately. (macos)
When I want to change a icon and click browse, while my Finders window opens though, the extensions window closes & when I choose the new icon in my Finder I like to upload, nothing happens.

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.
Favicon Changer does not require any sensitive permissions.
Risk impact analysis details
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.
Favicon Changer is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
