To designers of Proper Menubar for Google Chrome. I want to remind you, that it is 21 century century and not Middle Ages … Welcome to the future!
Wrote a bad review when it wasn’t working properly. It is now working kind of as it should. The menu options doesn’t have the normal shortcuts like Firefox used to have. The bookmarks menu should actually display your bookmarks not just have links to the manager or bookmark tabs. That is the thing most people would expect to see when they click on “bookmarks”. The support page is useless for making suggestions. At best you will be taken to JustAnswer which is using a bot that’s clueless about what you are referring to. So I will be hunting down an email for the dev for now.
I realize that Chrome is developed by people who don’t live in the real world and they intentionally make it difficult for developers to make things the way they’d like.
I like it however it seems to not stay where I put it. Need to check the settings and see what I have checked and unchecked.
Can’t figure out how it works. Installed it, closed Chrome, opened Chrome back up..no menu bar. Doesn’t seem to work.
Works fine for me. Just a suggestion: the bar disappears after closing the browser and has to be turned on again after the next start. Please improve!
DOES NOT WORK. AND YES STEPHAN, I’M RESTARTED THE BROWSER
FIX FOR BROKEN EXTENSION!!
The others are correct. This doesn’t work – unless you know the secret password and magic action!
The “+” sign is nowhere to be found, but it you click on the “magic” puzzle piece icon on the far right next to your picture it will open the Extension Manager. Scroll down the list and you’ll find the “+” sign that DOES work. It won’t display an actual menu bar, but all it’s menu choices are there and available, just not as clean and picturesque as a true menu bar.
The menu bar does not move into place. When I go to the Extensions icon and click on Proper Menue Bar I get a message that is does not work on this web page. The web page if a fresh Chrome Browser window.
proper menu bar does not work properly. when it is on a black and white data screen keeps flashing on the screen with information. very distracting and should be corrected by chrome. not good.
thanks for this i love it u get sense jare
After reading some reviews I got the impression these writers didn’t understand how to use the program. I found the program easy to use. Just what I needed.
Unable to set options – keeps resetting to defaults. Toolbar colors settings don’t appear anymore.
Proper Menu Bar caused my Chrome browser to flicker on every click. Removing it stoped.
Great addon
I’m trying to like it but when I pick the black button a box appears. The top of the box reads “Proper Menubar does not work on this web page, please try another page.
Now it works. Just had to close and re-open Google Chrome. When I re-opened, it came right up with Chrome. Good Job. Love it.
Excellent! Didn’t work at all until I restarted Chrome. Thanks from down under!
does not work
THANK YOU! Finally, I feel complete when using Chrome!
Garbage. Waste of time. Doesn’t work.
It’s useless, as many reviewers point out. The developer’s suggestions do not work. The black box with the + in it is black, regardless of the website one is on.
How many 1-star reviews are required before something is removed from the Chrome Web Store?
It’s not a proper menu bar. A proper menu bar would allow for keyboard shortcuts (alt+b to open bookmarks etc). This is barely more than a purely cosmetic extension.
didnt work sucked beyond measure
Does not work on Google page …funny
Can’t do anything to fix Google’s cr*p software engineering.
Thanks Stefanvd.net this is really helpful*****
