## Description

**Forcey by The Sohail Developer** is a straightforward and secure Chrome extension designed for forced downloading of files like PDF, MP3, MP4, HTML, CSS, and more. Normally, browsers open these files instead of downloading them. Forcey enables users to bypass this by directly downloading such files with just a URL or by clicking "Download This Page" while viewing the desired content.

The extension supports downloading not only force-download files but any file type and can save entire webpages as HTML files (including embedded media). Though primarily for Chrome, minor filename extension tweaks may be needed in Firefox due to URL rewriting. Overall, Forcey offers an effortless and effective solution for users who prefer downloading files directly instead of viewing them in-browser.
