LOVE it! Works everywhere for me. I uise an adblocker & when I visit a site that pops up that screen "We noticed you're using adblocker" I can close it. One of my most useful extensions so far in the year or more I've been using it.

I like it, but on many websites it only removes the overlay, it doesn't re-enable the user's ability to scroll. Most websites temporarily change this when they bring up the overlay so that you can't scroll to see past it or to continue reading while the overlay is present. On chrome this is fixed by right clicking on the webpage and, in the menu that comes up, clicking "inspect" from there search for "body overflow-y:" or just "overflow" without quotes, once you find this type "scroll" without quotes after "overflow-y:" or "overflow" so it looks like "overflow-y: scroll" or just "overflow: scroll" without quotes, do not delete any symbols or words other than the word after overflow/overflow-y and make sure to include the single space after the : symbol. Once you've done this press enter and you should be able to scroll again. I don't know how one may implement this into an extension, but it'd sure be nice if it could be. The disabled scroll isn't from the extension, it's from the website itself disabling it so you can't scroll while the overlay is up. The website changes back to being scrollable once the overlay goes away via you disabling adblock or whatever way it's designed to go away but via extension as the extension doesn't trigger whatever event causes the website to make itself scrollable again. Changing this setting, however, does. If this doesn't work for you there may be more "body" areas to change in the website than the one you initially found so go through and change them all until you get the page to be scrollable again. There's no real current alternative to disabling an overlay AND keeping the website scrollable if the website disables scrolling. Finally, to help further and clarify one final time, the code snippet you're looking for will look something like <body style="padding-right: 16px; overflow: hidden;"> Yours will likely not look exactly like that so don't go looking for that exact thing, but the key things to look out for are "body," "style," and "overflow:" make sure to replace whatever is after the word "overflow:", in this case "hidden". with "scroll", without the quotes, while making sure to delete and replace nothing else.

Just love it! Seems to work on all those cookie message 'I agree or not' questions. Now if only it had a setting to automatically close overlays!

All i have to do is click the logo in the extension bar right next to my account logo and poof, the static overlays disappear! Thank goodness and bless you for making this masterpiece.

Works ok but not dealing with lack of scroll bars of some websites, after taking out paywall.

Nothing other to say than it works. Let's me access certain content like locked websites that attempt to harvest your info before showing free college textbook pdfs. Thanks much!

Very useful, but would be great if I could scroll page after overlay removed.

Yes it does remove the overlay but most websites also disable scrolling. So it is useless getting rid of the overlay if I cannot scroll
