I recently added this extension, but after turning off Hulu whenever I was done watching, I encountered unexpected issues. Hulu completely stopped working, like completely, which was frustrating. I decided to delete the extension, and thankfully, Hulu is functioning properly again. I would advise caution when using this extension, as it caused significant problems for me. Will I re-add this extension, probably not.

Is HuluFix 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.

HuluFix requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
