(1) For use with Chrome and Firefox Portable everything works out of the box, just like with the regular browsers. Nothing special to do.

(2) The hints below are for manually installing older versions for Chromefrom the RPA software archive .

Yes, that is the reason. Chrome (but not Firefox) generates a new ID for a manually installed browser extension.

So to make the XModules work with your installation you need to

(1) Get the new ID of your installed extension (the screenshot shows the default ID)

id

(2) Edit these 3 JSON files in the XModule installer:

  • com.a9t9.kantu.cv.chrome.json
  • com.a9t9.kantu.file_access.chrome.json
  • com.a9t9.kantu.xy.chrome.json

Inside these files, add your kantu extension id to this list:

{
  "name": "com.a9t9.kantu.cv",
  "description": "Kantu CV Host",
  "path": "kantu-cv-host.exe",
  "type": "stdio",
  "allowed_origins": [
    "chrome-extension://YOUR ID HERE/",
	"chrome-extension://dpdlhdbnlaefobeejcgfidghdllhemkl/",
	"chrome-extension://gajffdmapmlbinfekgmigjiieciocjho/"
  ]
}

(3) Run the installer again:

  • On Windows, run the cv_x_install_chrome.bat, fileaccess_x_install_chrome.bat and realuser_x_install_chrome.bat batch files (one for each XModule)

  • On Mac and Linux run 1install.sh again
