LOVE this extension, would have gladly "bought a coffee" for this developer if I saw such an option. My only suggestion is I am not sure why, at least as far as I can see, there is not a setting from within the extension to get to the extension settings. However you probably won't need to access them.

Found this as I was searching for a replacement for a prior extension that will die when Manifest v.3 is mandated, works perfectly and if for whatever reason you've altered how the search expression is relayed to Google this extension will easily handle that.

Works great on Chrome 122 with extension version 0.0.7. Follow the directions on the extension's options page.

It doesn't seem to work with modern versions of Chrome, even when following the instructions on how to fix the regex.

Sadly does not work anymore. Using v0.0.6 and tried the "auto setup" on the options page multiple times.

Works flawlessly (after setup). Go into the "Options" menu, highlight the text in the box, right click and perform the Google search. That's it!

Worked perfectly. I just had to right-click the option in the top right of the screen, go to the options page and follow the instructions there to get it to work.

It's incredible that we have to rely on a third-party extension, but I'm grateful that there are users out there that share a modicum of logical reasoning and the have the ability to fix these issues. How this is yet not a default feature of the browser is beyond me. Extension Works exactly as expected after updating the info in the Options. Many thanks
