Allow Right-Click

Re-enable the possibility to use the context menu, copy, paste, and text selection on sites that prevent them.

Allow Right-Click is a powerful Chrome extension that restores the browser's default context menu on websites that block right-click functionality. It enables users to copy, paste, and select text even on sites that restrict these actions, ensuring seamless access to content. With a simple one-click toggle from the toolbar, users can unblock clipboard usage, re-enable saving of images and videos from platforms like Instagram and TikTok, and prevent distracting alerts by muting interruptive notifications.

This extension uses a non-persistent background script for efficient performance and automatically activates on user-requested websites. It supports unblocking of pointer events, touch events on Android, and access within custom HTML5 elements. Being open source, it provides transparency and customization possibilities. Whether you want to copy text or download media on restricted sites, Allow Right-Click empowers you with full control over your browsing experience.

User reviews

The 'Allow Right-Click' Chrome extension is praised for restoring right-click functionality on many websites and is appreciated for its simplicity and effectiveness on images and copying text. However, users report needing to manually enable it per site, inconsistent behavior on certain platforms (e.g., Google Maps, video players, Zoom), and occasional page refresh issues. Compatibility problems with the latest Chrome updates reduce its effectiveness. Overall, it's a useful tool with limitations that affect user experience on some sites.
