Allow Right-Click Chrome Extension

Allow Right-Click is a straightforward browser extension designed to restore the right-click context menu on websites that disable it, enabling users to copy, paste, and interact with site content freely. Instead of interfering constantly, this extension activates only when the user clicks its toolbar button, making it resource-efficient with a non-persistent background script.

Key Features:

Restores default right-click menus contextually; images will show image options, videos will show video context menus including "Save As".
Unblocks text selection and clipboard operations on restricted websites.
One-click toggle to enable or disable functionality easily.
Automatically activates on user-specified sites.
Suppresses disruptive alerts and notifications that hinder browsing.
Overcomes pointer event blocking and access restrictions in HTML5 custom elements.

Use cases include easily copying images from Instagram and 500px or saving videos from platforms such as TikTok. The extension is open-source and available on GitHub for transparency and community contributions.

User reviews

Allow Right-Click is a popular Firefox extension praised for restoring right-click functionality on restrictive sites, aiding image and video downloads easily without restarts. Users value its simplicity and effectiveness. However, multiple reviews highlight issues such as lack of Android support and unreliable automatic activation per hostname, requiring manual enabling in some cases. Despite these drawbacks, it remains a favored tool among users for bypassing right-click limitations online.

Works perfectly on some sites with limited full size image viewing for me. It's rare I need to use this, but sometimes there is just that one image ...

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.

Allow Right-Click requires very minimum permissions.

Risk impact analysis details

Medium Enables sending notifications which can be spammed but have minimal direct security impact.

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.

Allow Right-Click is probably trust-worthy. Prefer other publishers if available. Exercise caution when installing this add-on.
