What our analysis found
Block File Types, used by 500,000 people, showed no malicious code in Extension Auditor's review. It comes from a trusted publisher and was last updated in April 2026.
Analyst notes
The extension performs exactly its stated purpose: blocking file:// URLs according to admin-configured file extensions. It uses only essential permissions (tabs, storage, file://*) and makes no network requests, collects no user data, and contains no obfuscated or suspicious code. The ML model was likely triggered by the broad file://* permission, but the extension's behavior is benign and transparent.
