Preview: A Convenient Link Previews Extension for Chrome

Preview is a useful Chrome extension developed by chillipenguin that allows users to view a preview of a hyperlink simply by hovering over it. With this extension, there's no need to click on a link to see where it leads - just hover over it and get a quick preview!

The standout features of Preview include the ability to resize the content by dragging the corners of the preview window, as well as the option to navigate through the content and interact with the page. This is especially handy when you need to quickly adjust a setting, read comments on a site, or perform any other action without leaving your current page.

For added safety, Preview lets you decide whether to trust a website or not, and whether to allow JavaScript scripts to run on the previewed content. This gives you control over your browsing experience and ensures your security.

One thing to note is that some websites may not allow cross-website viewing, meaning you can only preview links within the webpage and not externally. This is a security measure to protect the web, but it can be a bit inconvenient at times.

Overall, Preview is a convenient and user-friendly extension that enhances your browsing experience by providing quick link previews. Give it a try and save yourself from unnecessary clicks!

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
