Internet Download Manager Chrome Extension Not Working
Hey guys, hoping for some help. I have had issues in the past with IDM not working on Chrome but after reading and trying the '.CRX drag and drop' It will not allow me to do so. I get a circle with a line through it as in prohibited.
So I tried unpacking it and loading it through dev tools. It loads up but any web page I right click on it to download using IDM shows IDM as grayed out. Once again sites like youtube the download panel fails to pop up. I just updated Chrome about a day ago. I downloaded the latest version of IDM.
Any help would be great.Thanks.
