Please correct me if I'm wrong but, doing so in a chrome extension already moved to the version 2 of the manifest (which is required for all the new extensions), without relaxing the CSP policies, shouldn't it generates a security exception due to the eval() instruction?

BTW, this is the same problem in which most template libraries incur when they use new Function() with default CSP manifest v2 policy.

@joakwest I know that it's better than nothing, but it sounds totally stupid to me, anyway :)

I know it. It sounds crazy to me, too. But it took me hours to import. And also other contacts of mine have had the same problem. I can't really understand the reason why.

I tried those virtual machines. I've been incredulous when have seen what Microsoft provided. Virtual machines with their systems and relative Internet Explorer version. "WOW" I said... before to install them...

Hours to import the virtual machines (because the shorter way has been useless for me), only to have 60/70GiB of virtual machines on my computer and 4 or 5 operating systems to activate (???).

What do they thought when do built those VMs? IMHO, it's totally stupid (thanks Microsoft to not change your mind across the decades) to provide a virtual machine with Windows XP to activate, only for testing in IE6. Do they really believe that I could buy licenses for 4 or 5 OS (most of them older and no more supported) only to test in a browser? Couldn't they to share VMs with a minimal or limited and preconfigured OS?

Always IMHO, Microsoft was able once again to do one step forward and five step backward.
