Works great, would be better if we were able to disable the shortcut key, (no way to set the button to nothing)

It needs to be on by default.

Thanks for this extension which worked really well. However presumably some changes on youtube mean that various content now shows over the bottom of the video which also makes it difficult to use the timeline and other controls. Please can you look at changing the extension to handle the latest youtube page?

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.

YouTube Windowed FullScreen requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
