OPSWAT File Security for Chrome

The bad reviews are coming from people who do not really understand what this extension does. 1. OPSWAT is a vendor for critical infrastructure protection 2. This free extension allows to scan files with the OPSWAT Cloud, currently 24 Malware engines (check metadefender.opswat.com for more info). 3. It can also check the URL reputation using the OPSWAT Threat intelligence 4. The API key you can enter is only needed for corp customers who want to use their own OPSWAT Metadefender instance. 5. ...

saw high ratings and lotsa downloads for tis virus scanner extension install on brave browser [chromium based] and firefox [mozilla based] unable to scan as the scan process require API key. but on the extension settings Your MetaDefender API KEY info was blank. Thought it was browser problem. disable all the other extension but the api key just doesnt load. Disappointed with the extension. using the website is much slower

Awesome plugin. Basically VirusTotal in your browser.

I swapped from using a VT extension a while ago and have been very impressed with this. Nobody needs all the pointless AV engines, and OPSWAT uses the ones I trust Now it has domain-checking of any sites you visit, and I was surprised and very pleased to see a warning for a spam domain which my other block-lists missed. The use of StopForumSpam is a great idea as it includes useful evidence for many IPs and addresses.

used to have 4 stars... now it has broken my chrome...have had both OPSWAT METADEFENDER ext & EZ-LINK ext on chrome for years... no conflict till now... It nw is incompatable with EZ=link and i need my EZ-link way more so i have to remove OPSWAT.,. thaNKS. ~~~~~~ ERROR BELOW IS THIS: First none of my google searches will load and i get this 400 error: "400. That’s an error. Your client has issued a malformed or illegal request. That’s all we know." ~~~~~~ it says its extension fjampemfhdf... Show more

API key not found error after installing. but restarting browser fixed it.

This is awesome! Perfect tool to keep you safe!!

After adding this to Chrome then adding the given API key, nothing happens, doesn't work ???

I like it :)

too many browser tabs opened while download and after scan (if u close prévious). better replacing by notifications whith a link to details (and this link open a tab) in chrome or in desktop (if u activate the mode)
