Issues with the Webroot Filtering Extension

I forgot to disable the Webroot Filtering Extension when I installed MBAM. It has one nifty feature I'll miss though; on search results pages, verified links will have a green icon next to them, unverified links will have no icon, and I think known bad links will have a different icon (though I've never seen it myself).

*Specifically, when I installed the MBAM Chrome Extension, it produced conflicts. My bad.
(When can I have permission to edit my own posts?)

thanks for reaching out, Chrome has a known issue with the file download API, download files get renamed by our Browser Extension.

unfortunately there is no fix for this yet, google needs to fix this first.

When you say no fix, does that also mean no workaround? :<

ya there is no workaround, can you disable Malwarebytes Browser Extension and take a screenshot of the webroot extension?

I wonder if both Malwarebytes and Webroot are trying to rename the download.

[Amaroq_Starwind]

I can try that in a little while.

I still have this issue.   Does google know then need to fix the issue?
