# **How to install a Quizit extension from a ZIP file**
Here is a step-by-step guide on how to install a Quizit extension on google chrome from a downloaded ZIP file. For Chrome to read the files correctly, the installation must be done in Developer mode.
## Step 1: Extract the ZIP file
*Chrome will not install the extension directly from a ZIP archive.*
Locate the downloaded ZIP file on your computer:
- **Windows:** Right-click the file and select **Extract All...**, then choose the destination folder.
- **Mac:** Double-click the ZIP file for the system to automatically extract it to a new folder.
> **Tip:** Remember the location of this extracted folder – you will need it in a moment.
## Step 2: Open the Extensions management page
*Shortcut: type* ***chrome://extensions*** *in the address bar.*
Open the Google Chrome browser. In the top right corner, click the **three vertical dots** (Menu) icon, hover over **Extensions**, and then click **Manage Extensions**.
## Step 3: Enable Developer mode
*Required for installation from outside the official Chrome Web Store.*
In the top right corner of the extensions page, find the toggle named **Developer mode**. Click it to activate it. It will turn blue, and new buttons will appear below the top bar.
## Step 4: Load the unpacked extension
In the top left corner of the screen, click the new **Load unpacked** button.
## Step 5: Select the extension folder
A file selection window will appear. Find the **folder** that you extracted in Step 1.
> **Important:** You must select the main extension folder (the one that usually contains a file named `manifest.json` inside), and then click the **Select folder** button. Do not go inside the folder to select individual files
## Step 6: Verify the installation
Done! The extension should immediately appear in the list of installed add-ons as a new card. Make sure the small blue toggle in the bottom right corner of its card is turned on (this means the extension is active).
