Chromium plugin directory location?

12,523

Seems like the correct directory for plugins and extensions is:

~/.config/chromium/Default/Extensions  # if you are using Chromium

and

~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Extensions  # if you are using Chrome

At least, that's the way it is in my Debian system. Please note that ~ is your home dir.

You will have to see what extension is the one you are looking for, as they are named like this:

jim@debian:~/.config/google-chrome-beta/Default/Extensions$ ls -l
total 44

    I am trying to find the folder where Chromium stores plugins on Debian platforms. Does anyone know where this is?

    The default Debian folders in the given directory do not contain an extensions folder, only an "extensions states" folder: /home/pi/.config/chromium/Default/Extension State /home/pi/.config/chromium/Default/Local Storage /home/pi/.config/chromium/Default/User StyleSheets Please update the post.
