Troubleshooting
The extension icon does not appear
Make sure you have pinned the extension (Step 3 above). If you still do not see it, visit chrome://extensions and verify that Crosscheck is listed and enabled.
Extension installed but captures fail
Some pages restrict extension access, including Chrome internal pages (chrome://), the Chrome Web Store, and other extension popups. Try capturing on a regular web page instead. See the Extension Issues guide for more help.
