Does what is says - something most chromium-based browser manage to miss, and makes managing your extensions a breeze, especially if you use mor than 4-5 and need to alternate which ones are one. Great work dev, simple and to the point. And free. What's there to complain about? Great extension 😃

Ideally the drop down could be much larger, a full-screen option. and when uninstalling an extension instead of closing the drop-down and scrolling back to the top please could it remain open where the list is scrolled to? otherwise I thoroughly love this.

Stupidly tiny non resizable window = only reason above 1 star is some manager literally waste as much space as possible, meanwhile this piece of junk could show 3X the information if it simply expanded to the screen height. Also no clear indication what is on or off = must 'know' by 'color' = silly, & infinitely worse than stuff like 'SimpleExtManager' ~> https://chromewebstore.google.com/detail/simpleextmanager/kniehgiejgnnpgojkdhhjbgbllnfkfdk
