Recover Your Chromebook with the Chrome Extension

this thing turned my old laptop into a brand new laptop

WORTHLESS 8 TIME I WAS TRY TO BOOT ON THAT BUT IT fail.....

Doesn't work. Click on get started and nothing happens.

stuck on 0%

This appeared in my extensions and I don't remember ever installing it at all on Chrome.

T he recovery media is not loading to my external hard drive not the google style!

Guys i don't know whats the problem this is cool to help you get the recovery menu on your chromebook to show if you want dev mode if it doesnt show and you can fix your chromebook

Doesn't work

like so many others who have tried this, it just doesn't work. Nothing happens, no download, not asking for anything. Such a disappointment. Can't recommend

it is not being download stuck at 0%

Was unsure about using this with all of the bad reviews but it worked perfectly for me. I had some help from ChatGPT to get me through an obstacle but after that...smooth sailing.

Spent a couple hours on what ought to have been the 15-20 minute task of making a bootable USB stick to trial Chrome OS Flex on my expiring Windows 10 laptop. Total accumulated download progress: Zero percent. Not even sure it was zero percent as there were no signs whatsoever of any activity at all. Tried various Reddit offered fixes, ran as admin, reformatted USB with diskpart, etc. Zip.

not working

canot ger started, unhelpful

cant install chromeOS flex on external HDD-need to improve

This never ever works. If there was a way to give a negative number. I would |0|

A zero star rating is in order here. No matter where I click on the page the utility launches a duplicate inactive page that does not respond to any other clicks anywhere on the page. It basically is setting the focus in a locked field on a separate page entirely would be my guess.

cant get started

Truly this not reformat your HDD but just erase something. If hacker have your Chromebook compromised, nobody and nothing help you - period. Google even never. If you recover Chromebook, be aware not share your password with others around. It is very simple find out, if chromebook is yours or hackers.

not working

I was having the same issue everyone was having, not downloading past step 3 of 3. Finally, I had a light bulb moment and I ran Chrome as an administrator, then added the Chromebook Recovery Utility in the browser running as Admin. Now it is going on past the step 3 of 3. Of course nowhere on the instruction did it say run as Admin before it works but that is what I did and it worked for me. I was able to reimage the Chromebooks. Peace has been restored to the Valley of Peace

crashes Chrome browser on pressing install as soon as the image and sd device have been selected this box is Version 135.0.7049.128 (Official Build) (64-bit)

Extension page does not work, cannot even access a download. Support Phone number doesn't connect, email for Support came back as a dead address. Looks like it is dead...

This is not a recovery! just deleted all my photos

Any update on this? It works wonderfully before now I can't pass step 3, its doing nothing progress bar at 0% for an hour already.

Works perfectly the only bad part is that you need a 8GB SD/USB And you also need 8GB or more of free space on your computer. other than that it works really well.

nothing written anywhere works, no explanations, nothing does what is expected.

Corrupted my USB device for some reason don't use this trash JavaScript extension

Super easy. Stupid simple. Anyone who left a bad rating likely can't read simple directions.

people doesn't know how to use it man!!!!!
