Short description
View and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files with Google Docs, Sheets, and Slides Ghostery is a powerful privacy extension. Block ads, stop trackers and speed up websites.
Full summary

View and edit Microsoft Word, Excel, and PowerPoint files -- without needing Office installed on your computer.

Once the extension is installed, Office files that you drag into Chrome, open in Gmail, Google Drive, and more, will be opened in Docs, Sheets, and Slides for viewing and editing.

You can save each file back to its original Office format, or convert it to Docs, Sheets, or Slides to unlock more features, like inviting others to edit with you, commenting, chat, and more.

Please note that Office files cannot be edited in the classic version of Drive. The new Google Drive is gradually rolling out to all users via the Settings menu. If you don't see the option to try the new look, check back again shortly. Learn more here: https://support.google.com/drive/?p=new_drive.

Formats supported: .doc .docx .xls .xlsx .ppt .pptx

Ghostery has more than 100+ million downloads worldwide.

We provide safe, fast, and clutter-free browsing. Our extension gives you full adblock functionality, stops trackers from accessing your personal data, and annoying cookie consent pop-ups.

Our users enjoy online privacy protection that works out-of-the-box. No need for customization and maintenance!

We have three main components:

  • Ad-Blocking - blocks all ads on websites you visit with your Chrome browser, including Youtube and Facebook, helping you to focus only on the information important to you.
  • Anti-Tracking - stops trackers' ability to collect your personal data, replacing it with random values and anonymizing your identity for data brokers. If you see a need to unblock individual trackers, the option is available.
  • Never-Consent - automatically removes intrusive cookie pop-ups and sends an important message to website owners telling them that you don't want to be tracked. This feature adds convenience to each website you visit and acts like your privacy advocate towards content providers while using Chrome.

Our ad-blocking extension comes with additional features not found in any other ad blocker:

  • Trackers information on any website you visit, informing you about the number of trackers, their type, and the company operating them.
  • Trackers Preview on search engine result pages - displaying tracker information even before you visit a page. If you decide to visit the website, Ghostery will block any trackers waiting for you there.
  • WhoTracks.Me - Owning and operating the largest database of trackers allows Ghostery to update tracker information fast and reliably for all users.
