Hello everyone, today I'm sharing 11 incredibly useful browser extensions that you can install for free on Chrome and Edge browsers. They will definitely take your online experience to the next level.
IDM Multi-Thread Downloader: Ditch the "Cracked" Version, Use the Official One for Free!
First up is the IDM Multi-Thread Downloader. Many people search online for cracked versions of IDM, but there's really no need to take that risk. The official version can be used indefinitely even without activation, you just need to solve the annoying pop-up problem.
How to solve the pop-up problem? I recommend using Microsoft PC Manager. It's actually really good now, you can install it with one click from the Microsoft Store. After opening it, go to the "Protection" function, find "Pop-up Management", turn on "Pop-up Interception", and add all the identified pop-up ads to it. Your computer will be clean in an instant.
To block IDM's pop-ups, you can select "Screenshot Interception" in "Custom Interception", take a screenshot of the pop-up, and then close it.
History Viewer: Precisely Locate by Date, Retrieve Lost Webpages
The second one is the Browser History Viewer. Its biggest highlight is its powerful search function, which allows you to view historical browsing records by date. Want to find a certain webpage you viewed a few days ago? You can easily locate it with this. It also supports batch deletion of history, which is much more useful than Chrome's built-in history viewer.
Chrome's built-in viewer can only view records from the past day or two, and it's more troublesome to view older records. This extension can view complete records from days, weeks, or even months ago. It also supports categorization by device, making it easy to find browsing records on your phone. In addition, it can distinguish based on different search engines.
If you need to export complete browsing history, it also provides advanced export functions, which can export 90 days of records in ITM or document table format. The exported time period can also be customized, such as today, yesterday, last week, last month, etc.
Cache Granular Deleter: Precise Clearing, Say Goodbye to Repeated Logins
The third one is the Cache Granular and Delete extension. Sometimes we only want to delete the cache of a specific webpage, but the browser's built-in function can only delete all of them, causing all webpages to require re-login, which is very troublesome. With this extension, you can achieve precise deletion.
After installation, just click the extension icon to delete the cache of the current webpage. It also supports custom control, such as deleting time, cache type, etc. I strongly recommend enabling the "Top Limit Activity Hemoglobin Card" function, which can clear the data of the current tab.
Free VPN Extension: Massive Nodes, Freely Roam the Network World
The fourth one is a free VPN extension. There are many free VPN extensions, but this one has the advantage of having many nodes, covering almost all continents. Whether you want to connect to nodes in the Americas, Asia, or Europe, you can find them.
After successfully connecting, you can test the network speed. Watching YouTube videos at 1080P is basically no problem. Of course, since it's free, don't expect it to be too fast. It's a good backup plan.
Creation Afterwards: Explore More Possibilities
The fifth extension, Creation Afterwards, works very well with the Gradio for Web script.
Search by Image: Quickly Locate Image Sources, Find High-Definition Originals
The sixth one is the Search by Image extension. Want to know the source of a certain image on NetEase? Want to find its high-definition original? You can achieve it with this extension. Just right-click the image, select "Search by image", and then select a search engine, and it will help you quickly locate the image source.
One-Click Dark Mode: Protect Your Eyesight, Relieve Eye Fatigue
The seventh one is One-Click Dark Mode. Just click the extension button to quickly switch the webpage to dark mode. You can also freely adjust the brightness, color, etc.
Full Page Screen Capture: Completely Save Webpage Content, Say Goodbye to Disconnections
The eighth one is Full Page Screen Capture. If you need to take a long screenshot of a certain webpage, this extension is very useful. It can save the entire webpage as a PNG image or PDF, and there will be no disconnections, the effect is very good.
Music Recognition: Music Radar, Identify Songs Anytime, Anywhere
The ninth one is Music Recognition. It has now been built into the iOS system. When you hear a song you like on the street but don't know the name, just open it and you can immediately identify it.
One-Click Send to Telegram: Quickly Save Webpages, Convenient and Fast
The tenth one is an extension that can quickly send the current webpage to Telegram. Just right-click the webpage, select the send button, and you can save the webpage to Telegram.
Dipsync Chat History Export: Complete Backup, Easy to View
The eleventh one is an extension that can export Dipsync chat history to PDF or HTML format with one click. If you copy the chat history directly, there may be garbled characters or incomplete formatting. Exporting with this extension will give you a complete, clean, and tidy chat history.
