What is Enable local file links?

The 'Enable local file links' extension is a handy tool for Chrome users that breaks the default prohibition on opening local files directly from the browser. This add-on is designed to enhance user experience whilst maintaining security, as it only reacts to manual user operations; ensuring no malicious page can open a local file without explicit user permission. The extension does not collect or use any personal information and its source code is openly available on GitHub.

Hello, I hope you're having a splendid day! I am currently seeking opportunities to expand my business operations by investing in extensions with a significant user base, beginning from 50,000 users and up. No matter if your extension has a modest user base or counts its users in the millions, I am interested and ready to negotiate a purchase. If you are in possession of such an extension and looking to turn it into a profit, please consider reaching out to me. We can discuss the price and proceed with a transparent and secure transaction through a trusted escrow service based in the United States. It's great that Google allows the transfer of extension ownership between accounts, so your Google account ownership will remain intact.
