Jan-2025 This outfit used to have two extensions - a video downloader and this Tab Session Manager. The video downloader stopped working about a year ago and now the Tab Session Manager has stopped working too. For almost two years, I've allowed them to autodebit my Paypal - BUT NO MORE. When I wrote them about the video downloader not working I never got a response. Adios. Win 7 Pro Firefox 115.19.0esr (64-bit) Dell Precision M6600 w/8GBy

様子見しますが、少し懸念があります。
