    Maybe I'm doing something wrong, but in my case, this addon never works: old encoding always stays, regardless of my choice of new encoding.

    Please file an issue over at https://github.com/nneonneo/firefox-charset-extension/issues so I can take a look at what's going on. Also note that the extension cannot function on addons.mozilla.org for security reasons. You can always try "UTF-16-LE" if you want to verify the extension works (on the vast majority of pages, it should turn into gibberish).

    It doesn't work at all, but this extension shouldn't exist in the first place. The native menu option worked perfectly fine until the Mozilla devs removed it for the typical "Stack Overflow" reason: "You shouldn't need that."
