Next and previous buttons for viewing images in local file URLs to browse folders
Image from store
Description from store
Ever open a file:/// image from your local file system explorer only to find that you want to view the next and previous image in the directory with ease?
Well now you can. Install the extension and visit it's options page for more details about how it works!
chrome-extension://lhlckkgdiojkapplglfeomlkjllphilo/about.html
Note - you have to manually allow access to file URLs once the extension is installed, similar to how you might allow extensions in incognito mode.
Enjoy!
Fullscreen Slideshow Steps:
1) From options set body CSS to background-color:black;
2) Consider checking the option to reduce flicker if URL bar matters not
3) On windows press F11 to enter fullscreen, on mac press Command+Shift+F
( note: version 0.19 contains a bug where the save button will seem to save formats other than PNG. It does not - all files saved with this version are PNGs. Version 0.20 will save JPGs in addition to PNGs. )

- (2025-03-04) Francis Pritchard: Great extension, though no longer available.
- (2025-02-27) Serhii Riznychuk: Easy to use, fits my needs perfectly (espectialy "image only" mode). The only one thing i would add is way to set custom keys on "next"/"prev". This kind of extension have to be integrated by default in every browser
- (2024-10-13) Daniel Moore: Bro, this extension now zooms in on the image after clicking the next button. Can you fix it? Worked great earlier. Thanks!

- (2022-10-08) Mario Kotlar: Seems to work perfectly! Lifesaver given that most image viewers out there are full of bloat and aren't even color managed. And it gets bonus points for supporting custom formats by typing their extension in the plugin options menu.

- (2020-07-30) Chris Stump: Love this, but I can't figure out how to configure the URL to access a folder of images on an external [USB] drive? It's my first time using file:///, and googling the syntax rules keeps sending me to Chromebook tutorials. Can you help? :)
