Something not working?
Chrome says "Manifest file is missing or unreadable"
You picked the wrong folder, or you picked the zip itself. Unzip first, then in Load unpacked choose the AuraSolve-extension folder that has manifest.json directly inside it.
I don't see the AuraSolve panel on MyLab
Refresh the MyLab tab after installing. Make sure AuraSolve is switched on in chrome://extensions, and that you're on a practice question, not the assignment list.
How do I update to a new version?
Download the new zip and unzip it. In chrome://extensions, click Remove on the old AuraSolve, then use Load unpacked again with the new folder. Delete the old folder after that.
Chrome shows a "Developer mode extensions" warning
That's normal for extensions loaded with Load unpacked. Click the X to close it. AuraSolve keeps working.
AuraSolve disappeared after I deleted the folder
Chrome runs the extension from that folder, so deleting it removes AuraSolve. Download it again, put the unzipped folder in Documents, and repeat step 4.
