About

This Chrome extension is designed for developers, testers, and everyday users who need full control over form fields on websites. Many sites use readonly or disabled attributes to prevent editing, block autocomplete, or force the use of on screen keyboards. While these restrictions may serve specific design goals, they can also interfere with development, debugging, accessibility, and user convenience. This extension provides a simple and reliable way to remove these barriers and restore normal input behavior.

When activated, the extension scans the current web page and removes readonly and disabled attributes from input fields, textareas, selects, and other interactive elements. Once unlocked, fields can be edited, tested, autofilled, or inspected just like any standard form element. This makes it easier for developers to test validation routines, layout changes, UI interactions, and data handling without having to modify site code or work around artificial restrictions.

For users, the extension offers a workaround for websites that try to block browser autocomplete by setting input fields to readonly until focus or by forcing manual typing through embedded virtual keyboards. With the restrictions removed, password managers and autocomplete systems can work as intended, allowing users to enter information quickly and securely.

The extension does not modify site data beyond enabling interaction with existing fields. It does not store or transmit any information. Its purpose is to enhance testing workflows and allow users to interact with their own browser tools without interference from site imposed limitations.

Key features:
	1.	Removes readonly and disabled attributes from input fields, textareas, and select elements.
	2.	Allows developers to test forms that usually restrict typing or rely on scripted behaviors.
	3.	Enables browser autocomplete and password managers on sites that attempt to block them.
	4.	Provides a simple toggle so users can enable or disable the feature as needed.
	5.	Works on most standard and dynamically generated fields.

Use this extension whenever you need full control over form fields during development, quality assurance, or everyday browsing. It helps eliminate unnecessary friction and allows you to use your browser and tools the way you choose.
