[mekibe]

when i try to create the file myself via crome i get this message
This extension is not listed in the Chrome Web Store and may have been added without your knowledge. Further information

I would like to know about this as well.

This is an issue for sure, but for the moment you can get around it by:

1. Download extension by clicking here: https://github.com/c0de0ff/DownloadManager/archive/master.zip
2. Now extract and unzip the code somewhere, keep track of where you unzipped it to.
3. Then open a new tab and go to the extensions management page at this url: chrome://extensions/

• If that doesn't work, go to Menu (the three lines at the top right)->More tools->Extensions.

1. Click the “Developer mode” toggle (at the top right) and then click the button labeled “Load unpacked extension…”
2. Now navigate in the resulting file dialog box until you are in the directory with a manifest.json file.

Is there any way to get this extension back on the webstore? Loading it via developer mode is very annoying especially with the pop up.

The develoer @c0de0ff will have to fix whatever the issue is that is the reason that it's no longer on the CWS.

There's no more chance of the extension coming back to the store?

Do we know why this extension was removed from the store in the first place?

I am wondering myself. Is it malware? It's going to be deprecated in 2023 unless it's updated.

It appears the developer has a hidden "feature" where it installs the following service: infatica-service-app.exe. I believe this is why it was removed from the Chrome Store. It seems to have missed the eyes of many here on Github.

@Spuner You don't want it.

Can you point to where this is in the code? I don't see it, nor do I see this installed on my system

@YesTrustMe, why?

@YesTrustMe Unless you can provide concrete proof of your claim, you are spreading false information. I just audited all the code and I can find nothing even close to what you are saying.

@Spuner I'm pretty sure that @YesTrustMe is either a spam bot or a griefer. As I said, I just audited the code. I found nothing suspicious. I do not know how to report @YesTrustMe for misconduct.

There is another extension on the Chrome Store that is a fork of this: https://github.com/auxdesigner/Material-Design-Download-Manager

More than three years later, how's it going with the removed extension due to malware? And pointing to a 10 year old link? Sounds to me you're projecting and a bot or a sophist. 😜
