alex durolex (ID: 00000075c6f4470f) Voted 4 ★ - Updated 02/10/2023 Bonne extension basique, mais : - on ne sait pas où est localisé le fichier html du back up généré - pas l'option de choisir cet emplacement à sa convenance (ex : dossier de sauvegarde général en cas de crash) - pas l'option de l'envoyer sur un cloud ou par mail afin de le synchroniser avec un autre navigateur sur un autre device
