  I have tried to use this to add links but I get an error message that qap cant read the file folder and asks me to enter it manually. Except, I am using it on a webpage. Doesnt work in chrome, edge, or firefox.

  It works for me using Version 125.0.6422.141 (Build officiel) (64 bits). What version of Chrome do you use?
  
  It also works with Firefox Release 126.0.1 (May 28, 2024).
  
  The error message was written when QAP was able to add folders only and was not updated when I added support for web pages. I just updated it and this will be in the next release.

  Thank you Jean,
  Strangely, When I used the keyboard shortcut for "Add active folder or webpage doesn't work for webpage" it worked, and then when I tried it again from the menu it worked. However, I just tried it again, and it didn't work. I wonder if it happens only after a fresh restart. I will test now.
  
  Nope that's not it, I think its related to my edge side bar. When I turn that off it works.

  I also have the task bar on the right side (love it!) and, for me, it does not interfere with the "Add active...".
  
  Unfortunately, I have no idea why this is behaving this way.

  It’s not the task bar, it’s the Microsoft edge browser side bar. It can be detached from the browser and dock on the side of the screen. It’s in the pic. My windows taskbar is on the left side actually.

  Interesting. I can't find how to detach the Edge side bar. I'm using Version 125.0.2535.92 (Version officielle) (64 bits).
  
  Can you confirm if the issue occurs only when this Edge side bar is detached or put on the right side?

  Attached is a screenshot of my edge version. And a little video demoing the issue is linked here https://dataforensics-my.sharepoint.com/...zgBjjMF9AA. I can confirm it happens only when the sidebar is detached.

  Thanks for the video.
  
  I can't detach the Edge bar with my current version of Edge (even if it is more recent than yours). The menu command for this is greyed out:
  
  
  
  So I can't test it. This being said, the code I use to detect the URL of the page in the active browser window is pretty advanced and is based on info I got in this AHK forum thread. I'll review the thread to see if someone reported this issue with Edge. If yes, I may find how to update QAP code to fix it. If not, I could report the issue.
  
  But, in anyway, I need to be able to reproduce it myself before. Anyone knows why the option is greyed out? Is there a plugin to install to activate it?

  Please see screenshot, see if this works for you.

  Almost... After I add this to the target
  

  Code:

  "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft\Edge\Application\msedge.exe" --enable-features=msShorelineStandaloneSidebar

  
  the menu item becomes enabled but when I select it, it does nothing and when I reopen the menu, the command it disabled again. I searched the web for a solution and found nothing yet.

  Perhaps you can force an update to edge. Go to edge setting and search for update. Other than that, I have no idea.

  I was up to date the lats time I checked but I got a new update today. Unfortunately I have the same behavior (menu item greyed out) with version "126.0.2592.56 (Version officielle) (64 bits)".
