Installation Instructions

Chrome (and Other Chromium-Based Browsers)

1. Clone or download this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/phawdk/studydrive-download.git

   Or download the ZIP file and extract it.

2. Open Chrome (or your Chromium-based browser) and navigate to chrome://extensions/.

3. Enable "Developer mode" by toggling the switch in the top right corner.

4. Select the option to "Load unpacked" and choose the folder where the repository is cloned or extracted.

Note: These steps are very similar for other Chromium-based browsers like Microsoft Edge, Brave, or Opera. You may just need to navigate to the corresponding extensions page (e.g., edge://extensions/ for Edge). Depending on the browser, the buttons may be located elsewhere on the page. Also Note: If you see the message Unrecognized manifest key 'browser_specific_settings', you can safely ignore it. This key is only used by Firefox and has no effect on Chrome or other Chromium-based browsers.

Firefox

1. Clone or download this repository:

   git clone https://github.com/phawdk/studydrive-download.git

   Or download the ZIP file and extract it.

2. Open Firefox and navigate to about:debugging#/runtime/this-firefox.

3. Click on "Load Temporary Add-on" and select the manifest.json file from the repository folder.

Note: This temporary Firefox add-on will last until the browser is closed.
