(2024-04-15) Matthias Kuhn: Die App soll Schutz bringen, erzeugt allerdings nur Frust. Wenn jede dritte Website als verdächtig eingestuft und nicht angezeigt wird, bringt das ganze gar nichts.
(2023-11-21) Betty Sanchez: I didn't even know that I had this extension installed til I had a problem with it. I can't open ANY SINGLE web...All of the sudden, all of them are reported as unsafe. That can not be possible... I can't neither swicth it off or delete it. Result: I can't navigate at all using google chrome. If I use a different browser then I can. Obviously is not a problem of the website visited, but the extension.

(2023-06-05) Daniel Bator: Very Good passed my test 19/19 blocked
(2023-04-12) Karen Roach: I compared safe browsing apps. MS Defender compares your browsing to tables of known threat actors in realtime. Anonymously. Defender, on a Windows computer has very low overhead and if you are setup to automatically download and install via Windows Update it is always current. Google permanently logs all of your browsing, keyed to your Google email ID, if you add their Safe Browsing extension. Sounds like spyware to me.

(2022-12-16) Rand Nogueira: Ótima ferramenta , acrescentando mais uma camada de proteção
(2022-11-30) Rick: Gestern öffnete sich bei einigen unserer Nutzer plötzlich ein Tab mit einer Meldung des Plugins in Chrome: "Thank you for using Microsoft Defender Browser Protection! Developer support for this extension is complete and will be expiring soon. To continue receiving protection from Microsoft, open Microsoft Edge." Verstehe ich das richtig, dass das Plugin für Chrome eingestampft wird?! Es wirkt generell so, als ob Microsoft die Nutzung von Edge weiter forcieren würde. Der Homepage-Link des Plugins browserprotection.microsoft.com führt plötzlich auch nur noch auf eine allgemeine Seite mit Tips zur Nutzung von Edge.
(2022-11-30) MARC RAGUSA: What does this confusing gibberish mean: Thank you for using Microsoft Defender Browser Protection! Developer support for this extension is complete and will be expiring soon. To continue receiving protection from Microsoft, open Microsoft Edge. Open Microsoft Edge
(2022-11-30) KKC: I'm removing your extension effective immediately. Leave it to Microsoft to remove something from the most popular browser to make it exclusive to their browser to try to increase market share and make you a product.. I've seen this story regarding Microsoft played out for decades and they still haven't changed. I will never use Edge and this just hardened my resolve. If I were allowed negative 5 stars, you earned it. Oh well, thanks for gift wrapping me and sending me to Brave.
(2022-11-29) Gregory Mason: This extension told me to install Microsoft Edge.
(2022-11-29) B Vs: This was a great additional layer of security, BUT, Microsoft is now using it to promote their clone of Chrome, called Edge. I think that is foul considering their Edge product is part of the same Chromium project. RIP Defender extension.
(2022-11-26) Dr.Ne0Gen3tic (Forensic Buro of Quantum): Diese Erweiterung, ist ganz OK, es geht hier nur um geblockte Domains, diese Erweiterung enthält eine Sperrliste welche Phishing Domains und Malware verteilende Domains enthält. Wichtig, ist die Intelligente Kombination, mit anderen Erweiterungen dieser art (von anderen Malware Hersteller, einfach z.b Malware Guard eingeben, denn im Gegensatz zu, antivirensoftware ergänzen, diese Erweiterungen sich! Das hier ist keine Antivirenlösung! Es erkennt keine Malware verseuchten Dateien oder Erweiterungen an sich sondern block nur die Domains! Auch sind diese art der Erweiterungen meist Kostenlos z.b Online Security eingeben!)
(2022-10-08) Matthew Kowal: While Microsoft has only detected and blocked one link throughout my entire installation it is good to know that the company has my back with Real Time protection for free! I'd recommend for use alongside another security solution like Google's Enhanced Safe browsing
(2022-09-30) 大畑乃之: サイトにアクセスする前に分析―依頼―出来る機能が有れば良い。右クリ・メニューで。
(2022-06-24) Main Fighter: It's currently false flagging mass amounts of genuine websites as dangerous. I've had reddit, intel and Australian Government Websites all false flagged as dangerous. Extension is currently completely useless till they fix it.
(2022-06-24) Will Potter: Broken, showing all web pages as threats.
(2022-06-24) M B: Has broken, getting errors on every page I try.
(2022-06-24) MetalOctopus: Actual garbage. 100% complete garbage
(2022-06-24) Rhys Brennan: It's gone mad with power. Blocked substrate.microsoft.com and login.okta.com...
(2022-06-23) Aaron Horler: This extension just caused a major outage for the company I administrate, by falsely deciding to block a number of sites we use. If you're an organisation using Chrome, my suggestion is to just enforce Google SafeBrowsing by policy and then deploy a DNS-based tool like Cloudflare Gateway or Cisco Umbrella instead of using this extension. It'll save you from Microsoft taking your business offline.
(2022-06-11) Smith丈将: chromeをメインで使っているなら、要は入れておけばいいのですよ。 Microsoft Defenderと連携して動くこの拡張機能を追加で入れておくと安心できると思います。特に設定する必要もないし、拡張機能の表示言語が何であれ関係ないですよ。
(2022-06-10) Dizerma: Очень редко блокирует какие-либо сайты, а недавно это расширение стало блокировать всем известный официальный сайт Telegramm`а (https://web.telegram.org/z/)
(2022-06-09) Gabriel Andrade: Boa extensão. Porém esta bloqueando sites conhecidos e válidos. Fiz uma pesquisa no Google e apareceu mensagem de "site perigoso", entrei na Amazon e apareceu a mesma mensagem. Algo está errado com essa extensão!
(2022-06-09) geovanedps: ótima ferramenta porem na data de hoje bloqueio sites validos, sugiro verificação.
(2022-05-26) Max Wilke: Can somebody please tell me how to disable this thing on my school computer? That would be amazing.
(2022-04-29) Mc: me encanto que bloqueara las paginas emergentes ahora si puedo ver nopor xd
(2022-04-19) Hikari N: windows10以降で市販のセキュリティーソフトを入れないなら必須らしい。日本語対応したら☆５。
(2022-04-05) J J: I had a brain fart when I installed this extension then removed it after realizing MSFT has a horrible decades long record of preventing any kind of virus.
(2022-03-10) 平井伸治: Looking at the browser's task manager, memory usage is low immediately after startup, but more than doubles after half a day of use. I have a feeling this is a problem with the extension, because there are extensions that do not increase memory usage.
(2022-01-19) Tortoise Knight: He hecho algunos test con esta extensión. Me ha protegido de algunos ataques, pero otros los deja pasar. He contrastado con la extensión de MalwareBytes y la verdad es que esta última ha bloqueado todo correctamente. Pudiendo instalar ambas gratuitamente os recomiendo esta última. Esto es en 2022, veremos si WD sigue mejorando, lleva una buena línea para estar prestando un servicio gratuito de antivirus.
(2022-01-07) aiden klatt: Just added this extension to chrome, hope it's legit and does its job of protecting my device in case there's ever a shady website I accidentally stumble upon.
(2021-11-15) Dave Sapling: A good extension for basic browser security. Doesn't detect much malicious sites though as I've tested it recently. My other browser safety extensions detect it more often though. I've reported multiple sites already for malicious and/or phishing websites. Needs more signatures though, overall great extension.
(2021-11-02) Shah Chowdhury: I don't understand what's this? how it's work?
(2021-10-04) Minh Tân Lê: rất hay duyệt web an toàn
(2021-09-29) tomas jostin Akselsen Aabech: tengo una pregunta por que en la DESCRIPCION GENERELAL dice REGIONES ADMITIDAS: Estados unidos, eso quiero decir que en otros países no funciona!!?????
(2021-09-26) Vova Godun: Одним словом Super.
(2021-07-23) 西塔鬼若丸: Windows10でChromeを使うならセキュリティが向上するので入れておいたほうが良い。 Mac、Linux、Chrome Bookでは利用できないらしい。
(2021-07-10) Sean: Edit: Still stand by my rating and review. But now I no longer need to install it as a extension since I switched to the new Edge (the Chromium based Edge). Edge has this built in. Dose exactly what it claims. Has never gotten in my way, given me a false positive etc. And it's so lightweight I don't see any reason not to install the extension.
(2021-06-26) Normal Windows user: didn't protect me against all phishing website
(2021-05-23) Mauricio Torrealba Diaz: lo recomiendo al 100 para estar seguros navegando por la red, ya que, hay muchas paginas que tienen virus
(2021-04-29) J H ENTERTAINMENT: thisis so great thanks
(2021-04-20) It does absolutely nothing. Even after showing active and restarting the browser, neither a malicious site nor the Microsoft test phishing sites were blocked.
(2021-04-18) tcobell1314: bro it so bad it doesnt even work i tryed microsofts OWN TEST WEBSITES and yet it just lets me go to it even if i refresh the tab it doesnt dont waste ur time this is garbage
(2021-03-28) J. García: Un día "me protege" supuestamente de la https://cuevana3.io/ junto con https://mega.nz/ y al día siguiente les da paso, hubo un error en la Matrix o que paso exactamente entre ayer y hoy que se desbloquearon esas paginas? Seguiré usándola, pero con esa duda, de... De verdad funciona?
(2021-03-09) Maurizio Lombardi: Direi ottima, fa molto bene il suo lavoro
(2021-01-16) FUMADORES MX: El único problema que tiene es la falta de idiomas en lo general ofrece buena protección y es mas ligera que otras extensiones similares !
(2021-01-03) Владимир Гребенчук: Сейчач протестируем.
(2020-12-29) It helps but there is a bug now whenever I search anything it says it unsafe
(2020-12-14) Aryan Pandya: I like it but when I go on a very dangerous website it does not stop me from getting through any suggestions?
