Open the Motrix download manager installed on your computer, and go to `Preferences \u003e Advanced \u003e Security \u003e RPC secret` and create a random secret key and copy it.\nThere is also an option to update the RPC Listen Port, you dont have to do it. If you are updating it please make sure that you set it to the extension  using the set port option in the extension.\n\n\u003cimg src=\"https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/8397274/211193332-bc815b60-60a3-445c-bb0b-7547d1974de8.png\" alt=\"how to use motrix step 1\" valign=\"middle\"\u003e\n\n2.
