uBlock/dist/README.md

INSTALL

• Download and unzip ublock_{version}.zip (latest release desirable).
• Rename the unzipped directory to ublock
  • When you later update manually, replace the content of the ublock folder with the content of the latest zipped version.
  • This will ensure that all the extension settings will be preserved
  • As long as the extension loads from same folder path from which it was originally installed, all your settings will be preserved.
• Go to chromium/chrome Extensions.
• Click to check Developer mode.
• Click Load unpacked extension....
• In the file selector dialog:
  • Select the directory ublock which was created above.
  • Click Open.

The extension will now be available in your chromium/chromium-based browser.

Remember that you have to update manually also. For some users, updating manually is actually an advantage because:

• You can update when you want
• If ever a new version sucks, you can easily just re-install the previous one
