Features & Capabilities

Get Archive is a powerful Chrome extension designed to retrieve previous versions of webpages and restore dead links effortlessly. It integrates with popular archive services like archive.org (Wayback Machine), archive.is, and webcitation.org, as well as Google Cache.

With convenient keyboard shortcuts (Ctrl+3 to Ctrl+6) and context menu options, users can quickly obtain archive links and copy them to the clipboard. It supports restoring pages directly via right-clicking dead links or the current page, and offers alternative shortcut keys and a customizable toolbar icon for easy access. Additional features include clipboard URL pasting, copying current page URL with no selection, and PDF.js rendered PDF URL copying support. This extension simplifies managing dead links and accessing cached content for research, citation, or preservation purposes.

User Reviews

The only downside is that it sends notifications that cannot be turned off without also turning features off. Please make it possible to toggle notifications on or off.

Its good. However if the web page is not found in web.archive.org also, then it repeatedly tries to load the same archive page again and again in infinite loop.

Is Get Archive 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.

Get Archive requires a lot of sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

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 Add-ons Store, 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.

Get Archive has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
