If you are used to using Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge or Brave browsers, they are all based on Chromium, so you can download and install extensions from the Chrome online application store. If you feel that Google browser is too resource-intensive , there are other alternatives that allow users to continue using various customary extensions. Downloading various extensions from the online application store is a very safe method, because Google may check when they are put on the shelves, but not every network environment can connect to the Chrome online application store normally.

For example, the country or region you are in has network connection restrictions or firewalls (such as domestic, you know), or the office does not allow connections to external networks. At this time, it will become easier to download the extensions you want to use. very troublesome.

The ExtensionDock to be introduced in this article is a very convenient and practical Chrome extension grabber, which can extract the extension function CRX file of the Chrome App Store , allowing users to take the extension function with them, even if they cannot connect to the extension function store Certain plug-ins can still be installed in the environment.

If you have made your own browser extensions, you will know that CRX is a packaged file, which may contain, images, or any program used by the extension. Usually, you can only quickly download and install specific files from the app store with one click. CRX files cannot be extracted separately unless you use CRX Extractor to download the backup from the Chrome App Store. CRX Extension" or similar tools..JS.JSON

In addition, I would like to remind everyone that ExtensionDock will host the extracted CRX file on the "Tencent Cloud" node (the file download URL ends with myqcloud.com), so as to avoid problems that Chinese users cannot download correctly or may be blocked, but I believe that the file is safe Sex should be no problem, you can use it with confidence.
