Where are installed Google Chrome extensions stored locally? - google-chrome-extension

I have installed Google Chrome's extension Chrome Office Viewer (Beta) for open Excel, Word and Power Point documents in browser. And now I need to install this extension to others computers in local network.
The problem is that the computers is not connected to the Internet.
How can I extricate (get) installed Google Chrome's extension for installing to others computers (offline)?

Chrome extensions are stored in your filesystem, under the Extensions folder, inside Chrome's user data directory.
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings\%USERNAME%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\<Extension ID>
Windows 10/8/7/Vista: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\<Extension ID>
macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Google/Chrome/Default/Extensions/<Extension ID>
Linux: ~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Extensions/<Extension ID>
Chrome OS: /home/chronos/Extensions/<Extension ID>
You can copy the extension folder and drop it on a USB or in a network drive.
To install
Open Chrome and go to chrome://extensions.
Make sure Developer Mode is checked.
Click Load Unpacked Extension....
Find your copied directory and click Open.
The extension should install locally.

Rename the file extension .crx to .zip , like ( example.crx to example.zip )
Extract the zip file using Winrar or similar software
and Enjoy :)

To download the crx without store access, use this url.
https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx?response=redirect&x=id%3D~~~~%26uc
//replace the ~~~~ characters with the id of extension :
https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ultimate-user-agent-switc/ljfpjnehmoiabkefmnjegmpdddgcdnpo?hl=fr
To install an extension from a crx file, open Extension page and drag and drop the crx inside.

in window you should first enable hidden file and then go to this directory :
Windows 10/8/7/Vista: C:\Users\%USERNAME%\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\UserData\Default\Extensions\<Extension ID>
in above directory you will see extentions by id

For Ubuntu, now its in path: ~/.config/google-chrome/Profile\ 1/Extensions/ due to introduction of Profiles

Install under-development extension over web-store version

I would like to test/debug storage migration of an extension. When installing via "Load unpacked" a new ID is generated and the extension is installed as a separate extension.
How can it be installed as an upgrade of the previously installed extension?
You need to copy published esxtension's key:
Copy your extension url.
Paste into crx-viewer and click on open in viewer
Open console and copy public key
Add this line in your manifest.json
{
"key":"you_copied_key"
}

How do I open GitKraken after installation on Windows 10?

It seems that this is a real issue. In How to Install GitKraken, they point to a %APPDATA%/.gitkraken folder. Once there, you have "profiles" and "service" folders and "config", "log" and "secFile" files. Inside those folders, there are no signs of an executable. It's not under Program Files, nor in the PATH environment variable, it's nowhere to be found. If you install it again, it opens normally and logged in your profile, but after closing it, there's no way to open it again. There are no shortcuts.
What am I missing?
By default GitKraken is installed to your local app data folder. You can find the executable file inside %LOCALAPPDATA%\gitkraken\app-<app-version>
As of this writing, the latest version is 2.0.1 so the exe will be %LOCALAPPDATA%\gitkraken\app-2.0.1\gitkraken.exe
And easier way to open the software would be using the shortcut in the start menu:

pmcore Asset is not a valid PDF

I have copy a new Pimcore pro on my webserver.
When I drag and drop a PDF Asset in documents it shows the Message "Asset is not a valid PDF. Sorry! Somthing went wrong."
At Assets I can watch the PDF and at the Documents looks that it link is ok = Dependencies works! But I can't see the preview or in frontend.
What could that be?
Check two things:
Is there PDF lib install on web server?
You can install the PDF lib by following this link. You can check all the install library in setting from admin panel.
Is there full permission (0777) on /website/var folder and /pimcore folder?
You can give the permission by using the control panel (If it is provided by server service provider) or by using the command sudo chmod -R 0777 /website/var/* .
Mostly such issues arise due to permission when pimcore try to upload any file on server.

Change output file when packaging a chrome extension

When I package my extension folder it outputs with the same name and in the same directory
In the terminal:
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --pack-extension=./extension
My project folder:
root/
extension/
manifest.json
...
extension.crx
extension.pem
How can I change the name of the .crx and .pem files and also their destination?
Thanks.
There is no built-in option in Chrome to change the name or destination. You can either add a command to your build process to move the generated files or use the CRX building scripts published here to directly build the files as you please. The one in Ruby already has the options you need. The bash one would require some modification.

TYPO3 Dumy package does not show installation screen

I am trying to install the Dummy package to my laptop.
I have installed WAMP and i have placed the dummy package into the WWW directory.
However when i go to my Localhost from WAMP and click on the dummy page, instead of showing me the installation screen it shows my the directory index.
to create ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL just use command line
win+r -> type cmd -> navigate to directory -> type: echo > ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL
Dummy package has no sources inside, you can see, there's no even index.php file.
Use Source + Dummy which will give you an empty TYPO3 system or even better Introduction Package for learning purposes - working and containing lot of samples.
To create ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL make sure that your system displays files' names with extension ie: open with the Windows Explorer folder where you unziped the package and make sure that it can see filenames as INSTALL.txt (not only INSTALL) if it doesn't you need to search in options of Windows Explorer...)
Then go to folder typo3conf and create just common, empty file ENABLE_INSTALL_TOOL.txt and finally chane it's name and remove .txt extension.
TYPOe install tool will be satisfied.
