-Description- Personally, I've always used Internet shortcut files for a variety of reasons. For example: 1. To passively share links to content via shared folders. 2. To supersede the temporary use of pinned tabs and bookmarks. 3. As portable links. 4. To accompany resources (installers with links to the websites, projects with links to assets, etc). However, I always found them so awkward to create, hence me creating this extension.
-FAQ- Q: Why does this extension say that it reads my browsing history? A: I don't know. It does not. To see the real permissions, check file "%localAppData%\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\flehofiklehmnnolpjcamplcnmhgcbkk<version>_0\manifest.json" → section / key "permissions".
