Hide items by link

Hide items by link is a Chrome extension developed by AltIvan. It falls under the category of Browsers and is a subcategory of Add-ons & Tools. This free extension allows users to hide any item with a link on a webpage.

With Hide items by link, you can simply right-click on any link you dislike and hide it forever. Whether it's a YouTube channel you don't want to see in your search results or a website you find annoying, this extension gives you the power to remove those unwanted links from your browsing experience.

Version 1.2 of the extension had some issues on certain websites, but those have been resolved in Version 1.3. Additionally, a major bug that caused the extension to stop working after a certain number of items has been fixed in Version 1.3. In Version 1.4, a fix was applied to the options page to address the same issue. Version 1.5 further improves the functionality by fixing a bug where filters sometimes didn't load, and enhances the heuristics for link selection. In Version 1.6, the heuristics have been further improved to identify related elements that don't share a container.

If you change your mind about hiding a link, you can always go to the options page and unhide it. Hide items by link offers a simple and effective way to customize your browsing experience by removing unwanted links from webpages.

In Softonic we scan all the files hosted on our platform to assess and avoid any potential harm for your device. Our team performs checks each time a new file is uploaded and periodically reviews files to confirm or update their status. This comprehensive process allows us to set a status for any downloadable file as follows:

Clean

It’s extremely likely that this software program is clean.

What does this mean?

We have scanned the file and URLs associated with this software program in more than 50 of the world's leading antivirus services; no possible threat has been detected.

Warning

This software program is potentially malicious or may contain unwanted bundled software.

Why is the software program still available?

Based on our scan system, we have determined that these flags are possibly false positives.

What is a false positive?

It means a benign program is wrongfully flagged as malicious due to an overly broad detection signature or algorithm used in an antivirus program.

We’d like to highlight that from time to time, we may miss a potentially malicious software program. To continue promising you a malware-free catalog of programs and apps, our team has integrated a Report Software feature in every catalog page that loops your feedback back to us.

Flag any particular issues you may encounter and Softonic will address those concerns as soon as possible.
