The CRX format files are very easy to use. They can be added on to the Chrome browser simply by dragging the files to the system’s extensions window. This can be done by going to the application menu and then choosing Window. In that, the extensions options should be selected. Another way of reaching to this window is by typing &qout;chrome: //chrome/extensions&qout; in the address bar. Also, whenever a user comes across a suitable file extension on Google Chrome, he can include the same to his browser by clicking the &qout;Add to Chrome&qout; button. After this is done, Chrome will automatically download the extension CRX for mat file and unzip it after which the file gets installed.

In the above process, the user never has to directly interact with the .crx files. They are just the temporary files by Chrome. Once an extension is installed, Chrome deletes the . crx file. Though Google Chrome is the most suitable program to open these files, they can also be extracted with 7-Zip and TUGZip programs. Another application related to these files is the Links Games Course File.
