Since Google has decided to keep all unauthorized and unapproved Chrome extensions out of your browser, there was plenty of outrage from the tech community that likes to have choice in what they do which is obviously the appeal for a lot of Google products anyway. Still, the company stands its ground and there is indeed the very plausible defense that gullible and inexperienced users are protected much better this way.
As a result of these policies, installing an extension directly from a third-party website is no longer possible when using Chrome. Users instead have to download and install the extensions manually and I am here to show you how.
How to install third-party unapproved extensions in your Google Chrome
1. Go to the website that hosts the extension and download it in your computer.
2. Click on the menu (three-lined hamburger icon at the top right corner) in Chrome.
3. Select Tools or More Tools.
4. Select Extensions.
5. Find the .crx extension file you downloaded in step 1 and drag and drop it into the Extensions window in Chrome.
6. A window will pop up listing the permissions that the app requires and requesting your confirmation for its installation. Confirm your choice and the extension will be added.
