Installing Extension

Follow these steps to install the browser session extension from the provided .crx file without using the Chrome Web Store.

1. Get the Extension Files

• You have received a file named something like my_extension.crx.

  • Windows: Right-click → Rename → change .crx to .zip.

  • macOS: Right-click → Rename → change .crx to .zip.

• Extract (unzip) the .zip file into a folder (e.g., my_extension_folder).

1. Open the Chrome Extensions Page

• In Chrome, go to: chrome://extensions/

1. Enable Developer Mode

• Toggle Developer mode ON (top right corner).

1. Load the Folder

• Click Load unpacked.

• Select the folder you extracted from the .zip file.

The extension should now appear in your extensions list.
