Google Chrome dropped native support for Microsoft ClickOnce technology. This extension restores the ability to launch ClickOnce applications from Chrome, which is specifically required for Logalty electronic signature products using Wacom/ePad devices, but works for any ClickOnce-based application.

1) User installs the extension and the native helper (logaltyclickoncehelper.exe). 2) When navigating to any URL ending in .application, the extension intercepts the request. 3) It sends the URL via native messaging to the local ClickOnce helper. 4) The helper launches the ClickOnce application on the user's desktop. 5) The browser is redirected to javascript:void() to prevent the raw file download.

Target users: Users of Logalty electronic signature products (Spanish digital signature service) / Users who need to run ClickOnce (.application) applications from Chrome / Enterprise/professional users working with Wacom/ePad signature devices

The bundled binary logaltychromeclickoncehelper.dat (33.8KB) could not be analyzed as it is a binary file - its contents are opaque
The extension requires a companion native executable (logaltyclickoncehelper.exe) which must be separately installed, limiting full workflow verification to source code alone

Monetization

No paid features detected

No payment UI, no billing/subscription code, no premium tiers, no upgrade prompts anywhere in the source. The 'pro' keyword hits are false positives from Spanish words in nativeinstall.html ('proceso' = process, 'comprobar' = check) and base64-encoded metadata. The extension is a simple free utility with no paid features.

Confidence: 98
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: The extension contains no login UI, no authentication code, and no account management. The 'session' keyword hits in rules.json (lines 8, 12) are jsessionid URL parameters in declarativeNetRequest redirect rules for specific ClickOnce URL patterns - they are server-side session tokens embedded in URLs, not login functionality. The extension operates purely as a local ClickOnce launcher via native messaging without requiring any user authentication.
