Yeah but if you think of it, there are extensions for translation, all sorts of useful things, and I tried installing them but never could work out how to even start using one haha! FS should maybe do a course on it because, somehow a browser is seeming to become more than a browser. I also tried installing this one they are always advertising on youtube, grammarly, but that doesn't seem to help or work at all. But again though, it might be that we just have no idea how to actually even start using it. It isn't correcting or helping me correct any grammar or mistakes I'm doing so far, so I don't even know if it's on or what it's supposed to be doing or if it's doing anything. Mad.

If you have installed the extension, hit the f10 key and arrow left until you hear the name of the extention and hit enter and that should get you in -- I have never used that particular one, so I don't know how to use it.

Hi friends So I want to read a book in epub format, and I don't really want to use readers like thorium because I'd like somehow for the book to be displayed in a browser. So there is a chrome extension called epub reader for Chrome or something, and I downloaded it and installed it, but, I can't then get to it to tell it to open the epub file in Chrome. If I choose the Epub file and make Chrome my default browser and say open with Chrome, Chrome always treats the epub book as if I'm downloading it, even though it's already on my computer. The instructions for the extension are not things that I understand, since it says, open Chrome, click on the epub reader extension icon in the browser toolbar, but I don't have a toolbar or am I somehow being stupid? Normally, a toolbar is something like in Microsoft Edge where you get all those weird buttons after tabbing from the address bar, so you press alt-d and then tab. For some reason, my Google Chrome doesn't have this? Should it? I've never installed any other extensions before, so I'm not sure how Google Chrome extensions are supposed to work. I don't have another computer with google chrome to compare, and it wasn't anything that bothered me since I never thought I'd want to use, or need to have a toolbar. Thanks Multi
