- (2021-03-24, v:0.1) Walter Schwarz: Getting "Failed - Blocked" message
Hello, This extension used to work fine. But recently I always get a "Failed - Blocked" message when I drag a file link to the desktop. Tested on several different PCs. It looks like Chrome changed something in the most recent update. Can this be fixed? The extension was very useful.
