Where are chrome extensions stored

Where are extensions stored once they've been installed to Chromium? asked Feb 17, 2011 at 11:03 Extensions are (usually) stored at ~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions. Here's an example featuring the amazing adblock:jake@daedalus:~$ cd .config/chromium/Default/Extensions/jake@daedalus:~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions$ lsgighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom/ jggheggpdocamneaacmfoipeehedigia/jake@daedalus:~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions$ cd gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom/2.3.1_0/jake@daedalus:~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions/gighmmpiobklfepjocnamgkkbiglidom/2.3.1_0$ lsadblock.js background.html blacklisting/ button/ functions.js img/ jquery/ manifest.json pages/ whitelister.jsadblock_start.js blacklister.js broadcast_channel.js filtering/ Icon.png Info.plist _locales/ options/ port.jsTo see it in your file browser, make sure you can see hidden files (View > Show Hidden Files).

To keep your data private, Google Chrome uses Safe Browsing to protect you against: Abusive websites and extensions Malicious and intrusive ads Malware Phishing Social engineeringHow Safe Browsing works Standard protection With standard protection, Chrome checks the sites that you go to, the extensions that you have installed and the files that you attempt to download against Google's list of unsafe sites and downloads. Sites and downloads on this list are associated with abusive websites and extensions, malicious and intrusive ads, malware, phishing and social engineering. Chrome periodically downloads and stores the most recent copy of this list on your device. It also stores a list of sites known to be safe. Each time that you visit a website or attempt a download, Chrome first checks if the URL is on the list of safe sites stored on your device. If it's not, Chrome sends an obfuscated portion of the URL to Google through a privacy server that hides your IP address. If Google confirms that the website or download is malicious, Chrome warns you that it may be dangerous. If you have an abusive or malicious extension installed, Chrome disables it. In some cases, if the request to the privacy server fails or you're browsing in Incognito mode, the site gets checked against the list of unsafe sites stored on your device instead of the list stored with Google. In these cases, if there's evidence of suspicious behaviour, Chrome sends an obfuscated portion of the URL to Google. In addition to the protections described above, Chrome will send a report to Google if it finds suspicious page behaviour or suspicious actions that you may have been tricked into performing. For example, when you enter a previously saved password on a new site, Chrome checks with Google to determine whether the page might be phishing, a type of social engineering attack used to steal your data. If it's determined that the site is phishing, Chrome asks you to check or change your password. Sites are checked for phishing and social engineering terms. Chrome sends a small set of visual features to Google and compares the site to a list of dangerous sites to determine whether it's malicious. Some security features are disabled in Incognito to prevent revealing additional data to Google. Enhanced protection Enhanced protection sends more information about your activity to Google in real time to offer stronger, more

By @stevy2191 Looks like it has been removed as you can now download Chrome Extensions to Opera without it! Woo! jaunte last edited by Woke up this morning to all my extensions having disappeared. Tried to reinstall them but realised the actual chrome extension add-on was also gone. I went to re-download it with the link but the page doesn’t even exist anymore. Has anyone else had this problem or know the reason behind this? I’m gonna have to switch over to chrome until it’s resolved since so much of my work is stored in my extensions. Junkmeat123 last edited by I got Opera version 92.0.4561.33 on my Windows 10 recently, everything is working like they're supposed to with nothing blocked away from my IP, except for the add-on "Install Chrome Extensions".I cannot access it through the browser itself, nor any other platforms like the mobile, and not even other browsers like Firefox and Chrome.Every other add-on can be browsed and installed properly, except "ICE", is there anything to help? Polarisman last edited by If the extension is already installed in Chrome, how would one add it to Opera as well? leocg Moderator Volunteer @Polarisman last edited by @polarisman By going to Chrome store and installing from there.Or you can try going to the extensions management page (opera://extensions), turn on developer mode, click on add unpacked, find the extension in Chrome user directory and add it.

Google Chrome is testing a new feature that lets you enable or disable all your extensions by clicking a single button. Be it debugging or saving resources, there are many reasons why you might want to use this feature, which was first spotted by Gamer Stones. I was able to find this feature in Chrome's stable builds—version 123.0.6312.123 to be specific—on Windows and Mac.Why you might want to use this featureSometimes webpages just don't load properly or certain elements don't work as you might expect. If you're unable to submit a form or parts of a webpage appear broken, then the first step in troubleshooting is to check if an extension is causing issues. Previously, you had to switch to an incognito window, where most extensions are disabled by default, or manually disable all extensions to check if that fixed the issue.With this new feature, you can quickly disable all extensions and reload the page to determine what's causing the issue. Similarly, if your laptop is low on battery or if your PC is running slow, you could quickly disable all Chrome extensions to improve performance. You might also consider using this feature when you're taking an online test, going through an important application, or in other situations where you're required to turn off browser extensions.How to disable all Chrome extensions in one click Credit: Pranay Parab/Chrome The setting is hidden behind a Chrome flag. You can access this by opening Google Chrome and typing this in the address bar: chrome://flags. Now use the search bar to look for Extensions Menu Access Control and click the drop-down menu next to it. Select Enabled. Once this is done, you can restart Google Chrome.Now, you can open any website and click the Extensions icon in the toolbar. It's located to the right of the address bar and its icon looks like a jigsaw puzzle piece. When you click this, you'll see a switch next to Extensions. Click this to disable all extensions on this site. You can click the same switch to enable them again. You can also click the switches next to any of the extensions in the list to manage them individually.
