Get Started with Google
Step 1
❱ Assuming that you allow websites to use plug-ins, if Google
Chrome detects that you’re missing a particular plug-in for a
page you are trying to view, you will see a prompt to install the
plug-in at the top of the web page.
Step 2
❱ Click Install plug-in in the message dialog. Some plug-ins begin
the installation process by downloading a setup file to your
computer. For those plug-ins, make sure that you confirm the
download by clicking Save in the downloads bar that appears.
Step 4
❱ NOTE: It is not unusual that a previously installed Chrome Plug-
in will require an update to enable functionality. These updates
will require you to manually agree to re-install the plug-in, by
downloading the new version, via the same process detailed above.Step 3
❱ Once the download has finished, restart Google Chrome by
closing all open windows to complete the installation process.
This is an important step as Chrome needs to be restarted or it
will continue to look for the plug-in you just downloaded.Installing Plug-ins

Plug-ins are essential pieces of software that help the browser to read
and display certain types of content. Unlike extensions, which add
extra features to Chrome, plug-ins are essential to the smooth running
of the browser. Here’s how to check, install, block and disable plug-ins
for Chrome.
