Can Chrome extension and offline MS Office plugin work together - plugins

I am planning to build a Chrome extension and want to be able to start it up and run it with an offline MS Office plugin (text highlight and right click). But I wonder if this is possible because Chrome and desktop office are in different ecosystems. A Chrome extension developer has told me that this is not possible, but I am still hoping that there is a way to make it happen.

How to stop Edge from automatically downloading source mapped UI5 library files (*-dbg.js)?

Opening up the developer menu (F12) in Edge instantly triggers Edge to start downloading all source map files. I mean all, all individual js files e.g. sap/m/Button-dbg.js.
It freezes up the browser and makes it impossible to do performance network tracing using the built in developer tools.
How can I stop this from doing that automatically?
Steps to reproduce:
Open MS Edge
Browse to https://sapui5.hana.ondemand.com/test-resources/sap/m/demokit/orderbrowser/webapp/test/mockServer.html
Once the webpage is completely loaded, press F12
You now notice it starts downloading all source map files for the UI5 framework (*-dbg.js)
Windows 10 1809 with Microsoft Edge 44.17763.831.0
source map files are downloaded unasked for
Windows 10 1909 with Microsoft Edge 44.18362.449.0:
no issues
In the app open STRG+ALT+SHIFT+S to open UI5 Dev. Tools, then -> Technical Settings -> Turn Debug-Sources off.

Where are chrome apps file located on a Chromebook?

Tried looking around the web and don't seem to find an answer.

Can't login to Visual Studio Marketplace

I want to login to Visual Studio Marketplace.
Running MacOS Sierra 10.12.6 using Google Chrome 62.0.3202.94.
It is basically stuck on this screen for a while...
...then it finishes with this.
Already tried several browsers, incognito / private modes without any success. Of course I contacted Microsoft first, without any progress on the issue.
It was not the VS extension issue, it would be related to the network or the Visual Studio Marketplace site. I could visit it in my side, maybe you could test it later or using different network. View the result.
If it still has this issue, you could get support from the Marketplace directly using "General marketplace help" here:
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/vsts/billing/_shared/qa-marketplace-support
I added these DNS servers at System Preferences / Network Settings / Wifi / Advanced / DNS, and now it can resolve login.microsoftonline.com (so I can login to Visual Studio Marketplace).
PC USERS: Check your Windows version
I resolved it today!! The problem was my PC was running Windows 8.0 and since it is no longer supported by Microsoft apparently, you need at least 8.1 to access the marketplace. I had to run the updates for windows a few times, and then by the 3rd restart I was able to access an upgrade to 8.1 and now I can access the marketplace in VS!!

Cannot install Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin in Google Chrome

I am using Windows XP SP2 and Chrome (version 9.0.597.19) but every time I run gwt in developer mode I see:
"Development Mode requires the Google Web Toolkit Developer Plugin..."
No matter how many times I install it.
How can it be that gwt developer mode is not running in google's own chrome in xp sp2?? This is outrageous??!! It is working in FF but is very slow.
Do you have Click-to-activate-plugins enabled in Chrome? I had, and I had to click on the little puzzle piece in the URL-bar and select that all plugins may run on 127.0.0.1.
Google Web Toolkit plugin is for Firefox 3.5.x and 3.6.x and
probably Google Chrome 7. I'm also using Chrome (version 9.0.597.19) which doesn't support GWT plugin
I was having this same problem. Every time I clicked "Download the GWT Developer Plugin
For Chrome" it would start to load and then just stop without anything happening. Eventually I opened the link in a new tab and got a captcha with this message:
"Our systems have detected unusual traffic from your computer network. This page checks to see if it's really you sending the requests, and not a robot."
Maybe you are having the same problem?

Deploying Silverlight applications to WinPhone7 emulator without Visual Studio

As per title, I would like to deploy my application without its Visual Studio project. I would prefer to place all executables/images/manifests in one directory and deploy it without needing the source or opening Visual Studio.
There is a way to do that for XNA apps, but it doesn't work for Silverlight apps for some reason. Other people had the same problem.
EDIT I know Phone Developer Tools are free and I am not trying to eliminate VS from my workflow. I just want to be able to grab the latest binary from the build server and quickly run it up in demo situations.
When you install the latest developer tools you get an application called "XAP Deployment" which can install a pre-built XAP onto either the emulator or the phone.
How to: Use the XAP Deployment Tool for Windows Phone
Visual Studio Express is free, and I think you can get a version of VS2010 now too.
