Prerequisites

Before you start, make sure you have the extension files ready on your computer.
DOWNLOAD THE FILES HERE

  • The extension comes as a .zip file, you must unzip (extract) it first.

  • You should have a folder that contains a file named manifest.json.

    • Tip: use a folder that you won't delete as the extension stops working if you move or delete this folder.

Step 1: Open the Extensions Page

  1. Open Google Chrome.

  2. In the address bar at the top, type chrome://extensions and press Enter.

    • Alternative: Click the three dots icon (top right) $\rightarrow$ Extensions $\rightarrow$ Manage Extensions.

Step 2: Enable Developer Mode

  1. Look at the top-right corner of the Extensions page.

  2. Find the toggle switch labeled Developer mode.

  3. Turn the toggle ON (it should turn blue).

Step 3: Load the Extension

Once Developer mode is active, three new buttons will appear at the top left of the page.

  1. Click the button labeled Load unpacked.

  2. A file selection window will pop up. Navigate to the folder where you saved your extension files.

  3. Crucial: Select the folder (directory) that contains the manifest.json file. Do not open the folder to select individual files; just highlight the folder itself.

  4. Click Select Folder (or "Open" on Mac).

Step 4: Verify Installation

The extension should now appear in your list of installed extensions. You should see its icon, name, and version number.

Important Note: Chrome runs the extension directly from the folder on your computer. Do not delete or move that folder, or the extension will stop working.
