@jmcassiet Since it's no longer needed since a while, it was removed.

@leocg what do you mean is no longer necessary? How can I install chrome extensions on Opera now?

@iv-fer Opera supports Chrome extensions natively, you just need to go to Chrome Webstore and install the extension you want.

No even the GitHub version works

(if you are using a old Opera version, like me)

When I click on the "Install Chrome Extensions" link it brings me to a white page that tells me "The page you are looking for can not be found". I figured it is a firewall issue. I have added the following URLs to my whitelist:
.opera.com
.opera.
addons.opera.com
.addons.opera
./en/extensions/details/install-chrome-extensions/
opera-mini.net

I can not get the page to work at all. Any help would be appreciated.

@stevy2191 Looks like it has been removed as you can now download Chrome Extensions to Opera without it! Woo!

Woke up this morning to all my extensions having disappeared. Tried to reinstall them but realised the actual chrome extension add-on was also gone. I went to re-download it with the link but the page doesn’t even exist anymore. Has anyone else had this problem or know the reason behind this? I’m gonna have to switch over to chrome until it’s resolved since so much of my work is stored in my extensions.

I got Opera version 92.0.4561.33 on my Windows 10 recently, everything is working like they're supposed to with nothing blocked away from my IP, except for the add-on "Install Chrome Extensions".

I cannot access it through the browser itself, nor any other platforms like the mobile, and not even other browsers like Firefox and Chrome.
Every other add-on can be browsed and installed properly, except "ICE", is there anything to help?

If the extension is already installed in Chrome, how would one add it to Opera as well?

@polarisman By going to Chrome store and installing from there.

Or you can try going to the extensions management page (opera://extensions), turn on developer mode, click on add unpacked, find the extension in Chrome user directory and add it.

Thank you @leocg for the posts.

If anyone needs it the direct url to paste into the opera browser to view the chrome extension store it is:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/category/extensions

By viewing that link in the Opera browser, I was able to install chrome extensions again.

Hey People. Stop answering things that you dont know for sure. You can add "Some" extensions to opera from chrome, however not every single one.

Example: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/cath-kidston/ndlpkmaeinmnbiadacenijnhlolneopm

Cannot be added. The fact that you were able to add some extensions, doesnt mean every one else is trying to add the same exact.

@nick2202 It's not an extension, it's a theme. And Opera doesn't support themes.

@leocg then it should support them as that is what most people are wanting, especially being a gaming browser. However, this is under google extensions webstore.

@nick2202 Nope, it's not under Chrome extensions store but under Chrome themes store.

@nick2202 Opera GX already allows you to change the theme
