Cette extension à l'air génial. Je suis curieux de voir tout le pouvoir des cookies mais je n'arrive pas à la lancer correctement. Quand je clique sur l'extension, elle charge juste avec écrit "Loading..." J'ai attendu quelques minutes mais rien ne se passe... Egalement essayé de la supprimer et remettre mais le problème ne se règle pas, c'est dommage. Si quelqu'un à un avis sur ce problème je suis preneur!

une petite fenêtre liée à ce plugin est restée ouverte après la fermeture de chrome et j'ai perdu tous mes onglets, et bien sûr impossible à restaurer
