I´ve been using your extension for many months, on Edge, with a fair amount of success. Over the last 2-3 months or so, right click on the page to Save as shorcut works fine some times, but some other times, it requires a second action to have anything downloaded to my desktop. As such, I´ve lost multiple shorcuts when I wasn´t aware enough to detect it hadn´t actually downloaded anything at all. This didn´t happen like 6 months ago, when it was 100% reliable. I can deal with that, but the extended file names is what totally killed it, for me. Amazon, for example, includes super long file names on their products. As such, and when I tried to move those links from my primary drive to an external unit, I found myself with a "Name too long" or something like that, which required me to edit every single link generated by your extension, to something that actually fits in. "Save In" extension does not have this problem, since it includes a Truncate option, which allows us to specifiy the max numbers of characters we want for our shorcuts, therefore completely avoiding the aforementioned problem. I would highly suggest you do implement this simple option, because after experiencing that royal PITA with Amazon, using your extension for that purpose is completely out of the picture. Thanks for you understanding.

Probably I'm the guy who use this extension the more often on the Earth, even on the Universe. The last time, it's work "bad" on Microsoft Edge, save link all time on "download" name. But today ALL work good like before. So thanks a lot. Sorry, I'm not a rich guy to give you $100.00 or more money. If a day I win to the lottery I will give you something guaranteed to 100%. But the probability of this happening is the same as finding an honest politician on this planet one day. So 0%. Thanks a lot for the WONDERFUL extension. I use it on Edge and Chrome. Have happy day and more, good health all your life !

The "Shortcut file type: Windows (.URL)" option no longer works on Microsoft Edge. We still have a file named "download". We have to manually rename it and add the .URL extension to it. However, not so long ago, this extension with this option worked perfectly. Strangely enough, on Google Chrome, there is no problem and everything works fine. Hope this bug will be repair soon. Thanks.

Крайне полезное расширение для yandex browser хромиума. Там удалили дефолтную возможность на пк перетаскиванием кнопки-ярлыка слева адресной строки создать ярлык на рабочем столе и тп в проводнике винды, или открыть этот адрес в другом браузере. Противные разрабы. Удалили топ функцию. что многие пользуют, ну или спрятали её ппц как неудобно и далеко.

Работает.

Exactly what I was looking for.

I've used this extension for quite a long time and I've never had a problem. What I find most useful is the "Save all tabs" option that allows me to make a zipped collection of the many (dozens, sometime) open pages on a specific subject, allowing for a "booklet" of different websites about it. "Save all bookmarks" is also nice, allowing me to often backup, quickly and effortlessy, all my bookmarks and having them with me on an USB just in a couple of seconds as a zipped URL folder, way faster and more convenient than the export/import original solution

Amazing!

Used to work good. Now when I save Chrome Web Pages to a folder, I'll go back in and click on the shortcut only to open on just the regular google homepage. Not the website. Oh well, anything good doesn't last forever.

Does whait it says, I would love it if it allowed me to select which ones

Je ne peux plus m'en passer. En deux clics, crée un hyperlien stocké comme un fichier. Grand merci.

Не работает сохранение всех закладок в браузере Vivaldi, начиная со 102 движка, все остальное работает нормально.

This is a great way to locally save links on Windows 11, which doesn't support drag and drop from the address bar anymore. Great job, dev!

Good to use! Very Nice!

An outstanding app. I never want to use my Chromebook without it.

nice

I've used this extension for quite a while, first with Chrome and now with Edge, and I've never had any problems with it. I'm so glad Save as Shortcut is available and still updated for those of us who prefer desktop shortcuts!

very good ,but has access to history.

Thanks for this extension, works great! Not sure if it's technically possible but since you said "Q: Can this extension be updated to do X? A: I'm open to ideas so feel free to contact me." I'll give it a try :) Would be great if you could add an option "Save as shortcut" to the context menu when you right-click on the tab. I'd personally prefer this rather than having an extra icon on the extension bar.

Just a wonderful extension. I use it several times a day and I never tire of it. And what a good idea to have added the forbidden characters ("* /: <>? \ |) as Unicode characters. Finally, link names like "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice" are possible. Thank you very much and continue your excellent work.

Good!!

WOW... saving urls as files in file system in better than any kind of bookmarking or web clipping that all these evernote and onenote fans all rave about... i just wish i had thought about this years ago and i probably didn't think about because html files saved in chrome using the save as menu only saves it as html files that are offline copies of the webpage; but this extension creates html files that load the online webpage. This is exactly what i wanted. Thank you so much sir/ma'am.

⌘U That is the shortcut that I have mapped to this indispensable and ingenious extension. Lived just two days without Save as Shortcut and felt the pain of not having this useful tool. Just tested the shortcut this morning and it works again! Thank you for giving the world such an essential tool for Google Chrome users, and thank you for your consiencience and diligent efforts to want to do good by your users. Ben FTW!!

I love this extension and have been using it on my Mac for years. I use preview (Quicklook) all the time for quick lookups. However, about 10% of the time the webloc file won't preview and wants to open in Safari instead of Chrome. Repeated attempts at creating a webloc usually does't help, but sometimes I can come back another day and successfully save it as a Chrome webloc (if I haven't already broken down and simply dragged the URL to create a shortcut). I switched to .html for a while, but soon realized I couldn't preview them. Is there anything that can be done about these occasional Safari weblocs?

This extension is insanely useful, especially under Linux!

Hi, Just excellent Extension. I use it each day and many time. I don't know if I can do that but sorry If I can't. https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/savescreenshot/?src=recommended This extension is like your but, I really don't understand how he does that, it's not even necessary to see the scrolling window but his apps copy all (scrolling windows too) Don't know if you can modify your extension to do that. Sorry I have no money to give at this moment. Thanks for your great Extension !!!

Absolutely essential. My bookmarks are an absolute mess. I've been using this app to create a kind of dashboard folder on my desktop to sites I go to every day. Great app, hugely helpful

Super sweet! But what happened to shortcut? i could use cmd shift s to quick save using this extension. Somehow stopped last week :(

The extension is very good.

March 23, 2019 This is the extension I use most often, several times a day, and therefore the best. I like having a copy of the links I visit every day and I visit a lot. If one had to choose one and only one extension it would be this one. Thanks to the programmer of this wonderful extension!

Great thing. You get all five if you anyhow manage to make the save-as-dialog remember the last save location.

How can I use it in "bilibili.com" ? It failed.

Не работает на Yandex browser mobile. А на компьютере можно и без расширения обойтись. Создать ярлык url легко - просто перетяните мышкой адрес сайта из адресной строки в проводник windows.

Great !!!!!!!. Thanksssssss

If you enable 'Ask where to save each file before downloading' in Chrome settings, you can choose where to save the shortcut. This also eliminates the harmful file warning.

ใช้งานได้สะดวกดี thanks!

Was working great but now it has stopped working.

Great and amazing extension ! thank you

Almost perfect. Would love some customisation like having the default file name being the title of the page minus the actual URL. Also maybe just directly saving without the dialog box. Thanks anyays!

good, works, simple

This extension really helped me out! Very convenient to use. Thanks to the developer! Linux 3.16.0-4-amd64 (Debian 8.7 Jessie, Mate 1.8.1), Chromium v.56

Must have when your browser doesn't support this natively.

I desperately want an extension to save a shortcut to a web page- this was a disappointment! 3 clicks on the extension and a click on 'this file may harm your computer'... I HATE THIS BABYSITTER POLICY CRAP! LET ME TURN IT OFF!

This App saved me from going to another search engine and I really like Chrome. Chrome, please make this a part of the browser and save future users the misery I went through. If IE can get this right why can't you. Although it does take me two clicks, I love this app and I think it is the best I have tried.

I use an Ubuntu based os. This app does a fine job of saving the .desktop file. Chrome however does a bad job of opening the .desktop file. Chrome and Chromium, from my experience always re-downloads the shortcut, instead of opening the webpage. If this issue were solved I'd rate 5 stars. I realize that this is a greater Chrome based browser issue, and not that of this application.

Excellent. Missing the option to choose where to save the shortcut only for that 4 stars.

I use this Invaluable extension umpteen times a day. As a Computer Tech I'm always adding to my collection of tools. So, I create a folder for a program. In the folder I keep the portable or setup executable. A PDF and a Text file that tells me everything about the program. And finally, i like to have a stand alone bookmark to find my way easily back to the program's webpage without having to search for it in my bazillion bookmarks in chrome.

I would love if it stores the page as a bookmark to , makes it easily searchable in chrome Also can you please add a keyboard shortcut option

Good to use!
