Malwarebytes Browser Gaurad for Edge Chromium

[Don12]

I recently bought a new computer and had trouble adding MB Browser Guard to Edge Chromium. Fortunately, I was able to chat with someone who provided the link to add Browser Guard to Edge Chromium. Edge Chromium uses the version for Google Chrome, but every time I tried to add, I got redirected to download Chrome. Could someone provide that link so I can email it to myself? It will help me to setup other people's computers with all the Malwarebytes tools I generally use: Malwarebytes Premium / Free Trial, Malwarebytes AdwCleaner, and Malwarebytes Browser Guard.

Edge Chromium requires a download from this location: https://www.malwarebytes.com/browserguard/

OK, so you were successfully able to get the extension installed using that first link?

No. The Google Store link you provided redirects people to download Chrome. The Malwarebytes website works for Edge Chromium. Choose Free Download for Chrome: https://www.malwarebytes.com/browserguard/

You have to enable extensions from other stores to install it from the Chrome store.

Ah, that explains it, thank you Porthos.  I'm not too familiar with Edge as I've never used it.  I kept thinking there had to be a way because I believe it is only hosted on the Google web store, and I always install it in SRWare Iron (another Chromium based alternative to Chrome) from the same place without any issues.  I guess Microsoft is trying to push users towards installing things from their own store which makes sense given all the effort they've thrown into their app store.

I apologize, Don12 that I wasn't able to figure out why it wasn't working, but let us know if Porthos' solution doesn't work and I can ask a staff member if there's another link, however I don't believe it's hosted anywhere else.

I already added MB Browser Guard to Edge Chromium by using the MB website. Good to know there's another way to add extensions though. Thanks.
