How to use Incogniton's extension manager

In this article we explain how to use Incogniton’s extension manager. By using this functionality you can easily and quickly install browser extensions for your new or existing browser profiles.

Adding extensions in Incogniton

1

Navigate to Google Chrome webstore

Go to the Google Chrome webstore through your regular Chrome browser and find the desired extension. Copy the extension URL from the toolbar - you'll need this for installation.

If you plan to install multiple extensions across multiple profiles, consider pasting the URLs into a text editor for efficiency.

2

Add extension in Incogniton

Go to the Incogniton app and navigate to Browsers > Extensions. Click Add extension and paste the Chrome Web Store URL into the link bar. Give the extension a name and description (optional) and click Add.

3

Add extension directly to browser profile

You can also add the extension directly to a browser profile:

• Create a new browser profile or edit an existing one

• Navigate to Advanced > Extensions & Cookies

• Paste the Chrome Web Store URL into the link bar and click Add

• Click Create or Save

The extension will be installed automatically when you launch the browser profile

Adding pre-saved extensions

Once you added an extension in Incogniton (see steps above) you can easily add this pre-saved extension to other browser profiles. Here's how:

• Click on the 3-bullet icon next to the profile and choose Extensions

• Select the preferred extension and click on Save

The extension will be installed automatically when the profiles are started.

You can also install an extension for multiple profiles at once. Select the browser profiles in question, navigate to the toolbar below and go to more actions. Click on Browser Management > Add Extensions, select the extension you want to add and click Save.

Removing an extension

You can remove installed extensions from profiles. Edit the profile, go to Advanced > Extensions & Cookies and choose Remove all or Remove selected.

You can also delete pre-saved extensions. Go to Browsers > Extensions, click on the 3-bullet icon next to the extension and choose Delete.
