| 2024-08-30 |  | | en | Not working for me, i tried installing python (button greyed out) and script (button yellow) - link was not working for script and i assume because it was yellow that i already have what is needed. I also tried the steps provided in someone elses review to copy the files and add to the computer and nothing worked still keep getting the error of Something went wrong specified native message host not found |

| 2023-02-10 |  | | WORKS PERFECTLY! The instructions are very short though, and as someone with 0 experience with computers, it was very difficult to figure out what to download and from where and all that. The instructions need to be thorough and clearer, they're not descriptive enough for me. But other than that, it WORKS beautifully and I think it's genius. | |

| 2022-01-17 |  | | The extension works but the description isn't clear, and the installer didn't work for me. This is what worked for me and I suggest giving it a try: 1. Install the extension; 2. Go to https://Python.org/downloads/ and download Python 3.10 for your OS (make sure to check 'Add Python 3.10 to PATH' before hitting Install); 3. Download and run this script installer: https://rebrand.ly/y2j7urm (it adds a registry, I think); 4. Download those files: https://www.mediafire.com/folder/hct2bwog78h7lmu,mdcvhakvr37yx3y/shared and copy them; 5. Go to C: > users > your_username > AppData (enable 'Hidden items' in the view tab if you don't see the folder) > Roaming > Create a new folder and name it 'wallpaper' > paste the two files you just downloaded to the folder; 6. Open Chrome and test. It should be working now. This is one of the small quality of life things that I quite appreciate. Why Chrome doesn't have this as a feature when Firefox had it for years is beyond me. | |
