Popular Extension Alternatives
Find MV3-compatible replacements for commonly affected Chrome extensions.
Proxy SwitchyOmega
Proxy Manager
Proxy SwitchyOmega stopped working in Chrome because Chrome 138 fully disabled Manifest V2 extensions. The closest migration path is ZeroOmega, a community fork designed for Manifest V3. FoxyProxy is another established option with advanced proxy management features. Both are available on the Chrome Web Store.
uBlock Origin
Content Blocker
Classic uBlock Origin stopped working in Chrome 138 because Chrome disabled Manifest V2 extensions. The official MV3 replacement is uBlock Origin Lite, developed by the same author. For full feature parity, Firefox with classic uBlock Origin remains an option. Other MV3-compatible ad blockers like AdGuard and Adblock Plus are also available.
Great Suspender
Tab Management
The original Great Suspender was removed from the Chrome Web Store and disabled by Google in 2021 due to malware-related concerns. Do not install CRX copies of this extension from unofficial sources. Use Chrome built-in Memory Saver or alternatives like Auto Tab Discard for tab suspension needs.
ModHeader
Developer Tool
ModHeader continues to work as an MV3-compatible extension for Chrome. It allows developers to modify HTTP request and response headers for testing and development. Alternatives like Requestly offer additional API testing features, while Header Editor provides similar header modification capabilities.
DownThemAll!
Download Manager
DownThemAll remains available and actively maintained for Chrome as an MV3-compatible extension. It provides batch downloading and download management features. For simpler needs, Chrome native downloads or alternatives like Chrono Download Manager offer different workflows.
Why Chrome Disabled Old Extensions
Many older extensions were built for Manifest V2. Current Chrome versions require Manifest V3 for newly supported extension workflows. This transition affects extensions that have not been updated to support MV3.
Better Security
MV3 limits extension capabilities to reduce attack surfaces and prevent misuse.
Improved Privacy
Users have more control over permissions and what data extensions can access.
Better Performance
MV3 extensions use fewer system resources and have less impact on browser speed.
