Sur MAC cette extension est très utile. Dommage car depuis la dernière mise à jour de Chrome, l'extension ne fonctionne plus. Sans cette extension toutes les opérations de consultation et de validation des documents (workflow) sont beaucoup plus longues car il faut systématiquement télécharger le fichier en local, puis après l'upload, il faut retourner effacer le fichier stocké localement. Donc vraiment utile et dommage car ne fonctionne plus...

Not working on a locked down VDI session using Chrome v84. Why we even need to install node.js runtime binaries on a Windows machine that has native support for v8 via Chrome is beyond me.
