Google Chrome version 117 now warns you if you've installed a malicious extension, if it's unsupported, or violates store policies.
Google Chrome users will soon be notified regarding installed extensions that have been removed from the Chrome Web Store as part of the Chrome 117 update, according to The Hacker News.
Google is introducing a new feature called 'Safety check' in the next Chrome release (Chrome 117) to help users stay informed when their browser extensions disappear due to developers removing them or breaching the rules of the Chrome Web Store.
With Chrome 117 in September, Google will let users know when an extension that they have installed is no longer available in the Chrome store.
