Browser extensions

Universal Copy - Copy Anything

A free Edge extension that lifts copy, selection, and right-click restrictions, so any web page can be copied again.

It works on the page in front of you and stores nothing: no page text, no browsing history, no personal data, and no remote server involved.

Some pages switch off selection and right-click, turning even a simple copy into a detour. The extension lifts those client-side restrictions, so copying works like it normally does.

What it does

  • Restores text selection on pages that disable it with CSS or JavaScript.
  • Restores copy / cut and the right-click context menu.
  • Re-checks every few seconds, so lazily loaded content is covered too.
  • Shows a brief confirmation on the page once a restriction is lifted.
  • Clicking the toolbar icon opens the extension home page.

Scope and limits

  • Works on HTTP and HTTPS pages; browser-internal pages and extension pages are out of reach.
  • It only lifts client-side restrictions — server-side paywalls and DRM are not affected.
  • Installs from the Edge Add-ons store; works in Edge and other Chromium-based browsers.
