Unstuck in a minute.

Projects live in the browser profile you made them in. A private window forgets them when it closes (Overset warns you when it detects one), and uninstalling the extension or clearing site data deletes them. Open your latest backup with “Open a project file” on the home screen.

Following the selected cell reads the structure of Google Sheets’ page, which Google can change without notice. Syncing and paste-back keep working when it breaks. Let us know so it can be fixed in an update.

Firefox grants access to Google Sheets the first time you use it, not at install. If you dismissed the prompt, open about:addons, choose Overset, and allow its site permissions under Permissions.

Check that the key is saved (Claude in the project’s Settings, DeepL under Connections) and that the project’s Confidential switch is off, which turns both off. In the web version neither is available; use the extension.

The first time you use a connection, your browser asks permission to reach that service. If you declined, open Settings → Connections and try again, or in Firefox open about:addons, choose Overset and allow the site under Permissions. Services that ask Overset to slow down are waited out and retried automatically, so a short pause isn’t an error.

Sign-in appears when the build you installed has it set up. GitHub always lets you paste a token instead: a classic token with the public_repo scope (repo for private repositories), because fine-grained tokens can’t open pull requests on repositories you don’t own. For an organization’s private repositories, the organization may need to approve Overset first.

Overset skips any cell someone else changed since your last sync, and lists their text next to yours so you can decide. It also skips rows whose key no longer matches (rows were inserted or deleted), and cells that are protected. Sync again, then write the ones that remain.

Starting from and writing to a game folder works in Chrome and Edge only. If your browser refuses a folder (some system folders are off limits), you can open it read-only. If the game has a file locked, Overset says so; close the game and write again. Every file it replaces is copied into .overset-backup first.

The same project is open in two tabs or windows, and saving in both would overwrite one with the other. Close one of them and carry on in the other.

Send us the file, or a trimmed copy with only the lines that misbehave, plus the format and the game it is from. Please remove anything confidential first.
