used to work but it stopped happy to give great reveiw once fixed

This is the only working extension I could find that would allow dumping of all the fields and data for an object. I then simply copy and paste into Excel for review. Very helpful! Salesforce Inspector should allow this also, but the extension is always disabled (grayed out) for me.

The extension is very useful. Please add an option to save the results in excel and pdf format preserving the original content.
