### Download Station Extension for Chrome Browser

Adapted from the original work done by LuukD
- https://www.download-station-extension.com/
- https://community.synology.com/enu/forum/1/post/35906

The Safari and Opera versions are [still available](https://www.download-station-extension.com/). But the Chrome extension is no longer available from the Google App Store.

The only changes I've made are to remove the analytics that virus scanners saw as a trojan, and updated the version number.


**Note:** Chrome will show an error in chrome://extensions/ but it still works in April 2024.
- Manifest version 2 is deprecated, and support will be removed in 2023

I'm working on updating the extension to manifest v3...


### How to install the extension

1. Download the latest [DownloadStation_Chrome_Extension.zip](https://github.com/007revad/Synology_Download_Station_Chrome_Extension/releases) file.
2. Unpack the DownloadStation_Chrome_Extension.zip archive. Remember the location of the "Synology_Download_Station" folder.
3. Open extension page by either:
- Type chrome://extensions in chrome's address bar.
- Click on the extensions icon > Manage Extensions.
- Use the menu: ⋮ > Extensions > Manage Extensions.
- In older versions of Chrome use the menu: ⋮ > More tools > Extensions
4. Enable "Developer mode" in the upper-right corner of the page.
5. Select "Load unpacked" option.
6. Find the unpacked extension's folder "Synology_Download_Station".
7. Open the folder.
8. That's it. You can find the extension on the chrome://extensions page.
