Where are installed Google Chrome extensions stored locally?
google-chrome-extension
Solution
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.
Problem
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)?
