Open With Google Chrome

Open With Google Chrome sends pages from Mozilla Firefox to Google Chrome.

Open With Google Chrome is a handy extension that enables users to seamlessly send any web page, tab, link, or image from Mozilla Firefox directly to Google Chrome. With a right-click option, transferring content between these browsers is quick and effortless. This tool also supports Firefox on Android devices, broadening its usability for mobile users.

Эта байда требует установки дополнительной программы для своей работы. Разработчику следовало это написать в самом начале описания этого расширения. Del

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.

Open With Google Chrome requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Browser Add-ons, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

Open With Google Chrome has earned a fairly good reputation and likely can be trusted.
