[2022.11.02] - Not working in Brave 1.45.116 Chromium: 107.0.5304.91 (Official Build) (64-bit) and extension version 1.0.6.0, please hope you can fix it Thanks

Must have if you work deeply with browser, with multiple channels, or multiple Chromium based browsers.

Must-have way to keep careful (yet simple) track of major and minor version of Chrome or Edge, with current vs stale indicator, shown in the browser bar. Author is highly experienced in browser design & security. Also shows User-Agent string on hover and right-click for handy dev links. Essential.

Extension safety

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.

Show Chrome Version does not require any sensitive permissions.
