How do I install browser extensions automatically?

You can load your browser extensions into your browser in Kameleo. Here is a step-by-step guide on how to do it.

Getting the extension file (.crx, .xpi)

First, you need to get the extension files. For Chrome and Edge, you will need to download the .crx file.

You have to visit the chrome extension market. Then select the required extension and copy the URL.

For Firefox, visit the https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/extensions/ site. By clicking on the selected extension, just save the .xpi file.
