--------------------------- Extension error --------------------------- Could not install extension from 'C:\Documents and Settings\dharmav\My Documents\Downloads\gmail.crx'. Could not open file. --------------------------- OK --------------------------- Vasanth On Jun 18, 12:19 pm, Erik Kay <[email protected]> wrote: > (+chromium-extensions - discussions like this should really start happening > there) > It works for me on XP as well.
