macOS 14.7.6, Safari 18.5, FireShot plugin 1.12.18

Hello,
I would like to take a screenshot of a file URL, but the plugin says 'Action required: FireShot needs your approval to capture this resource. Please go to the options and check the Allow access for file URLs box. Hint: see this short manual how to enable this option.' I can't find this option in the plugin options, and the underlined link go to an invalid chrome extension id/address.

I don't have this problem in Firefox (141) on Mac, even though this 'file URL' option appears absent there too.

Many thanks for your help!

PS. I received a download link with my order which points to an .exe. Is there a mac-specific download?
