How can installed extensions be synchronized between different computers and profiles?

Synchronizing a personal set of extensions between multiple workstations or laptops allows you to quickly set up your usual working environment without having to search for each application manually. Most modern browsers have built-in data synchronization mechanisms via cloud user profiles, but configuring this functionality may have its own nuances depending on the chosen software.

When using official accounts in Google Chrome, Microsoft Edge, or Yandex Browser, it is enough simply to log in with your account on all devices. In the profile synchronization settings, you need to make sure that the Extensions item is enabled. After that, the browser will automatically begin downloading and installing all the same add-ons that you already have installed on your main computer, although the configurations and internal settings of the extensions themselves may require manual adjustment.

In situations where standard cloud synchronization is unavailable or you are using independent browser builds, alternative transfer methods can be used:

It is worth considering that some complex extensions store user data, authorization tokens, and local databases in the browser's system storage. Such data is usually not transmitted via cloud synchronization for security reasons, so exporting and importing local storage files via developer tools may be required to transfer them.
