  • OT: How to show Roboform extension in Chrome browser?

    From Fokke Nauta@21:1/5 to All on Wed Apr 19 16:43:01 2023
    Hi all,

    As a teacher in a course group, I try to teach students how to use a
    password manager. I use the free version of Roboform for this.
    As browsers I use Chrome, Firefox and Edge. I can install the Roboform extension in all three browsers. In Firefox and Edge I can also see the extension in the browser, but not in Chrome. No matter what I do, the
    extension remains invisible. What can I do to make it visible so that
    users can click it?

    Many thanks in advance for your responses.

    There seems to first be an installation happening in Program Files folder.

    Browser steps come after that (enabling the extension).

    In the comments section here, it mentions the extension was grayed out
    in Firefox, and the extension needed to be reinstalled (using the .xpi file). Maybe something similar is happening in Chrome.
