KB ID Finder Firefox

KB ID Finder

Ensures that GUID-based Microsoft Support pages list the technical KBIDs.

Features & Capabilities

Historically, Microsoft included KB IDs in the Support pages' titles.

Now Microsoft is reworking their article structure and thought it would be a good idea to remove KB IDs from titles, and move them over to <meta> tags. Apparently, for them it is much nicer to work with GUIDs.

This simple extension reads the <meta> tags when a support.microsoft.com page is loaded, and adds the KB IDs listed to the article title section/title text.

Is KB ID Finder 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.

KB ID Finder requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
