Install Extensions from Chrome Web Store to Opera

Opera Mini LogoIt’s been sometime since Opera shifted to using Webkit to render webpages. Because of this change, all the older Addons/Extensions became incompatible with Opera’s latest versions and hence the Opera Addons library faced a hit. Coming to present, Opera now runs the same extensions as does Chrome and while there are a lot of important extensions in the Opera Addons library, it is no way close to the Opera Web Store. So if you’re looking to install an extension from the Chrome Web Store to your Opera Browser, here’s how to do that.

You just browse the Chrome Web Store as you’d do on the Chrome browser and install any extension of your choice. However, some extensions which deeply depend on some of the features of chrome may not work properly.
