Extract / Unzip the Folder

Chrome cannot load zipped files directly. You must extract the .zip file to a normal folder on your computer.

Windows: Right-click leadpilot-vx.x.x.zip and select 'Extract All...'
macOS: Double-click leadpilot-vx.x.x.zip to extract
Keep the unzipped folder in a permanent location (e.g. Downloads/leadpilot-extension or Documents)
Do not delete or move this folder after installing, as Chrome runs the files directly from it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Have questions or issues during installation? We've got you covered.

I get an error saying 'Manifest file is missing or unreadable'?

This happens if you select the outer zip file or the wrong parent folder. Make sure you fully extracted the .zip archive and selected the folder that directly contains the 'manifest.json' file.

Does LeadPilot work on Brave, Edge, Opera, and Arc?

Yes! LeadPilot runs seamlessly on all Chromium-based browsers including Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Opera, Vivaldi, and Arc Browser. The installation process is identical on all of them.

How do I update LeadPilot when a new version is released?

Simply download the new version from your dashboard, extract the new files into your existing LeadPilot folder (replacing older files), then go to chrome://extensions and click the small circular Refresh icon on the LeadPilot card.

Can I move or delete the folder after installing?

No. When loading an unpacked extension, Chrome reads the scripts and assets directly from your local folder. If you move or delete the folder, the extension will stop working. We recommend saving it in Documents/LeadPilot.

How do I find my licence key?

Log in to your LeadPilot dashboard and go to the Licences tab. Click the copy icon next to your licence key (starts with LP-) and paste it into the extension activation box.
