Win10 Pro; Opera GX version: LVL4 (core: 94.0.4606.96)
Before a recent update I was able to install chrome extensions into my opera gx. After, no long able to do so. that extension has disappeared from my version. In searching for the "install chrome extension" on web, whenever I get a promising lead and click on the site, I get error message saying: "that page/file is no longer available".

Other than CRX files, anyone know how to get chrome extension functionality back? Or am I missing a "trick" that others know and that I don't.

Thanks for any input you might be able to provice.

@mwcrouch To install Chrome extensions on Opera GX you just need to go to Chrome Web Store.

@leocg So there is no longer any "restriction" on installation of "outside opera store extensions" on the Opera browser? Wow, who knew. I've not seen in my hours and hours of searching any hint or notice that such could be done. Thank you. Hopefully, this thread will alert other Opera GX users that it can now be done.

@mwcrouch You can install extensions from Chrome Web Store, that's it.
