Features & Capabilities

Java Redirector is a handy Chrome extension designed to automatically redirect your browser from outdated Java SE javadocs to the most current versions. When you click on any link pointing to older versions, such as Java 7 SE documentation, the extension seamlessly updates your browser to display the latest Java 21 SE javadocs. This ensures developers and Java enthusiasts always access the newest reference materials without manual searching or navigation.

For example, if you attempt to open a Java 7 API documentation link, Java Redirector instantly redirects it to the corresponding page in Java 21, enhancing productivity and coding accuracy by keeping you consistently in touch with the latest official Java documentation. It's a must-have tool for anyone working with Java APIs.

This is not we need. We need a redirection to the Java installed on the computer.

Is Java Redirector 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.

Java Redirector requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk impact analysis details

High Allows the extension to observe and analyze traffic in flight for the selected hosts.

Risk likelihood

Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Java Redirector has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
