Before installing an extension in your web browser, ensure it is secure. Search for and install extensions that meet your needs. Try to install only commonly used and secure tools.
Once the extensions are installed, add them to your browser. You'll see a small icon in the extension's toolbar confirming whether the extension is active.
Some extensions disable various files and scripts to reduce load times. This can cause websites to load poorly, leading to a poor experience. Sometimes, you might even be mistaken for a slow internet connection. Additionally, some websites don't work when you block ads. In such cases, you'll only be able to access them if you disable these extensions.
