The Download with Irvine Chrome extension lets users send URLs directly to the Irvine downloader via the browser's context menu, streamlining the download process. This extension integrates with the Irvine software to enable a seamless workflow for downloading content referenced by URLs.

To utilize this extension, users must install the companion helper program (IrvineWebExtensionsHost) available on GitHub and ensure Microsoft .NET Framework 4.0 or higher is installed. After placing the helper program in a suitable directory and running the provided installation batch file (install_host.bat), users can easily send URLs to Irvine with a simple right-click. For multi-user setups, the helper must be installed for each user account. Administration rights might be necessary to ensure smooth communication between the extension and Irvine.

Risk impact

Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Download with Irvine requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
