Allow Right-Click
Extension Actions
- Extension status: Featured
- Live on Store
Re-enable the possibility to use the context menu, copy, paste, and text selection on sites that prevent them.
This extension is a clean implementation to re-enable right-click context menu on websites that prevent it. Some websites prevent right-click to prohibit the user from copying or pasting content. This is a misuse of a browser feature that is designed to allow website owners to provide their own context menu not to block the user from accessing the browser's default context.
How to use the extension?
Simply click on the toolbar button if the right-click is blocked on a website. That's it! Note that this extension uses a non-persistent background script which means it is not using any resource unless the toolbar button is pressed. So compared to the other alternatives it can be considered more efficient implementation.
Some extra use cases:
1. Copy image from image hosting websites such as Instragram (www.instagram.com) or 500px (500px.com).
2. Copy video from video or clip hosting websites such as Instragram or Tik Tak (www.tiktok.com).
Features:
1. Reenables defualt context menu based on the context (for image, you will get image context menu, and for video, you will get the default video context menu with "Save As" context menu item)
2. Reenables copy and paste on websites that prevert them (unblocks clipboard)
3. One-click toggle on and off
4. Automatically gets enabled on the user requested websites
5. Disables web distraction by muting "window.alert" and other intruptting notifications
6. Unblocks text selection ("user-select", "-moz-user-select", and "-webkit-user-select")
7. Unblocks pointer event blocking ("pointer-events")
8. Unblocks image access within HTML5's custom elements
9. Open-source on GitHub
10. Unblocks touch events on Android (touchstart and touchend)

- Doesn't work, can't right-click on https://www.google.com/maps/place/ images, even when "google.com" has been added to the whitelist.
- Mike Boardman
- Works as stated, quick and easy.
- BG Yassine
- I used to rely on this extension to download videos and it worked perfectly before. Unfortunately, it no longer works, which is really disappointing. I hope the developers update it so it can function again.
- Nate Horton
- Breaks video player controls.
- Stanislav Demchenko
- Works as intended. Well, you have to click on its button to enable copying on a page that block copying, but I am fine with that.
- Chuck Rawlings
- It works, but they really should allow you to enable the app via hot key (e.g., "Shift+ Alt + A" or something). Having to click the extension every single times gets really annoying really quick.

- It works sometimes. In many sites, once enabled, it forces the page to refresh anytime a link within the same page is left clicked (nothing to do with the right click), deleting any entries in the page -for instance if chatting and clicking to open a picture link.
- Daniel Lemon
- didn't work. uninstalling.
- Shy
- Works perfectly
- Joseph Renard
- Gets 3 stars because it no longer works on v3 manifest Chrome. When Chrome was still v2 manifest it worked flawlessly. This needs to be updated for current Chrome coding. Ublock origin updated theirs in no time. Ublock origin still works perfectly.

- Used to work on OF but doesn't now. It still works for pics but on vids, it's grayed out. I would have posted this in the extension's comments but that doesn't work either.

- Ignore the people saying that this plugin collects your data, it does not. Source code is available at https://github.com/lunu-bounir/allow-right-click so you can inspect it yourself. This is assuming of course that it's the same as what has been uploaded to the chrome store.

- There's no need for this extension to be collecting so much analytics about my browser when I'm not even using the extension! This is dangerous.
