What’s new: The GoFullPage extension, used by over 11 million users for full-page screenshots, has been flagged as “unsafe” and removed from the Chrome Web Store due to a copyright issue. The developer clarified that there is no security compromise involved and that Google is working to restore the extension.
Who’s affected
Over 11 million users of the GoFullPage extension across Chromium-based browsers like Chrome and Brave are affected by the sudden removal and safety warnings.
What to do
- If you rely on GoFullPage, wait for the developers to resolve the issue rather than downloading unofficial copies.
- As a temporary alternative, use Chrome’s built-in DevTools to capture full-size screenshots by pressing F12, then Ctrl+Shift+P (Cmd+Shift+P on Mac), typing “full,” and selecting “Capture full size screenshot.”
