SaveAsUrl Firefox

SaveAsUrl

By: Andre
Save the current URL in file ".url" and take screenshot of visible Tab. To execute the save dialog press hotkey "ctrl-shift-f12".

Features & Capabilities

With this add-on, you can save the current URL in the ".url.download" file and take screenshot of visible Tab. Starting with the 112 version of firefox, the name of the saved file should not contain the ".url" file extension, so the ".download" ending is added to the ".url" extension. URL is stored in a lightweight version InternetShortcut file without images and links on the favicon. Only URL. The default save folder is "downloads".

User Reviews

Would be nice to have the options: - modify the default syntax of all saved links. - disable screenshot saving or link saving. - save whole page screenshot, instead of just visible page.

Is SaveAsUrl Safe?

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.

SaveAsUrl requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.
