To Install Chrome Extensions in Opera and Vice Versa

How to Install Chrome Extensions in Opera and Opera Extensions in Chrome.


The latest versions of Chrome and Opera have a lot in common. It's now really easy to install Chrome extensions on Opera, and Opera extensions in Chrome. Here's how to do it.

STEPS:
1.Installing Chrome extensions in Opera 15 is easy: Just go to the Chrome Web Store and install whatever you want. 

2. The Web Store won't complain that you need a supported browser or anything-it'll just work.
    The extension you want will download and install, and it'll work normally.

3.To install Opera Next extensions in Chrome, you'll need to download the Opera extension file, rename it, and install it in Chrome:

  • First, make sure Opera Next is installed.
  • Then, go to the new opera add-ons page. You have to visit this specific page in Opera Next-this    is important because the page auto-detects which version you're using, and will only show you compatible extensions for that version of Opera. To get the extensions that'll also work in Chrome, you have to use Opera 15 to browse the store.
  • When you find one, instead of clicking ""Add to Opera,"" right-click the button and select ""Save Linked Content As..."" and save the .nex extension file somewhere you can get to it.
  • Grab the .nex file and rename it to end in .crx.
  • Open Chrome, and drag and drop the .crx file onto Chrome. You'll be prompted to review the permissions before installing it, but that should be all.
That's all.....there is to do it.
Thanks for viewing!!!
