Doesn't work

The only extension that i found that it works in my windows 10 home in 64, thank you so much to who made this from Málaga, Spain.

Nov. 2018 OP: Works. And the additional rating preview function is great. Feb. 2021 Edit: Honestly surprised (and glad) that the rating preview function on this extension still works. I uninstalled this extension in favour of another one back in 2019 IIRC, and that one stopped working last year. Back to this one I guess.
