Browser Utilities

Browser Utilities are small helper tools that remove common restrictions on web pages, making it easier to interact with content before or during extraction.

Right-Click Unlocker

Some websites disable the right-click context menu using JavaScript event listeners — common on news sites, image galleries, and paywalled content. The Right-Click Unlocker removes this restriction on the current page.

How to Use

  1. 02
    Navigate to the page where right-click is blocked.
  2. 04
    Open CrawlPilot → Utilities.
  3. 06
    Click Unlock Right-Click.
  4. 08
    Right-click anywhere on the page — the browser's native context menu now appears.
Note
The unlock is per-page only. If you navigate to a new URL, right-click protection may be re-applied and you'll need to unlock it again.

What it Unlocks

  • Right-click context menus blocked via event.preventDefault() or return false
  • "Inspect element" access on pages that disable it via context menu blocking
  • Text selection on pages that block copy via CSS user-select: none (restores selectability)

What it Cannot Unlock

  • Chrome's own restrictions on chrome:// pages
  • Server-side authentication walls (these can't be bypassed client-side)
  • DRM-protected video content

More Utilities Coming Soon

The Utilities section is expanding. Planned additions include:

  • Copy Protection Bypass — restore text selection and copy on protected pages
  • Reader Mode — strip ads and navigation, show clean article content
  • Auto-scroll Trigger — manually trigger lazy-load on pages before an extraction
