Installing an Extension

• Click Add... and select the .oxt file (extension file) you downloaded.

Installing an Extension

Usually, you should see a new button or menu item related to the extension you install. Since extension can do different things, sometimes you might not see any button or menu item. That extension might only appear and work on context menu. So if you cannot find it, check the extension's read-me file or manual.
