Google will disable some of its own Chrome extensions soon

Google is set to disable several of its own Chrome extensions as part of a transition to a new extensions system. This change will affect both third-party and Google-created extensions, with older versions that are not updated becoming inoperative. The deactivation will impact all Chromium-based browsers, including Microsoft Edge, Brave, Vivaldi, and Opera, although some may extend support for the old system for an additional year. Users can check the compatibility of their extensions by visiting the Chrome extensions page or the Chrome Web Store. Notable extensions that may be affected include Google Analytics Debugger, Google Dictionary, and others, although there is no official list of all impacted extensions. Users are encouraged to look for alternatives or consider using Firefox, which does not rely on Chromium and may continue to support certain extensions.
