Smart HTTPS

Automatically changes HTTP protocol to HTTPS, and if loading encounters error, reverts it back to HTTP.

Smart HTTPS - Secure Your Browsing with Edge Add-on

Smart HTTPS is an edge add-on that enhances your security while browsing. It specifically switches your HTTP protocol to HTTPS, ensuring that your communication with the server remains encrypted and secure. If there are loading issues, it reverts back to HTTP. The extension remembers sites that do not support HTTPS to boost the process of protocol-check. You can add chosen websites to the whitelist and manage these from the Options page.

Nu face nimic. Complet inutil

With the EFF deprecating their "HTTPS Everywhere" extension, Smart HTTPS is, IMHO, the next best option for an HTTPS enforcer. It's not as inflexible as the built-in HTTPS-only feature in modern browsers.
