Migrating from uget-chrome-wrapper

uget-chrome-wrapper is no longer supported. Please remove uget-chrome-wrapper from your system by following: Remove Uget Chrome Wrapper.

Install uget-integrator

Arch

pacaur -S uget-integrator-chrome uget-integrator-chromium uget-integrator-opera uget-integrator-firefox

Vivaldi users must install uget-integrator-chromium

Above packages bind uget-integrator with respective browsers. You can ignore a package if you do not have the browser or do not want to integrate it with uGet.

For example, if you use Mozilla Firefox only, installing uget-integrator-firefox is enough.

Ubuntu & Linux Mint

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:uget-team/ppa
sudo apt update
sudo apt install uget-integrator

Other Linux

wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ugetdm/uget-integrator/master/install/linux/install_uget_integrator.sh
chmod +x install_uget_integrator.sh
./install_uget_integrator.sh

Windows

Recommended Method

  1. Install the latest uGet Download Manager using Windows installer
  2. Download and install the latest uget-integrator_x.x.x.x.exe

Portable Method

Note: Portable method involves manual configurations so it is only recommended for advanced users

  1. Download and extract portable uGet Download Manager from official website

  2. Download and extract the latest uget-integrator_win_x.x.x.zip

  3. Open uget-integrator\uget-integrator.py in Notepad and replace "C:\\uGet\\bin\\uget.exe" in line no 38 by the absolute path of uget.exe Suppose you extracted uGet into C:\Program Files (x86) directory then line no 38 should look like this:

    UGET_COMMAND = "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\uGet\\bin\\uget.exe"

    Note that \\ is used in place of \

    Relative path should work without any problems. However, we recommend to use relative paths in the following format to avoid unexpected runtime problems. In this format, you need to replace "..\\uGet\\bin\\uget.exe" by the actual relative path of uget.exe.

    UGET_COMMAND = join(os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__)), "..\\uGet\\bin\\uget.exe")

    Above example assumes the following folder structure:

    .
    |- uget-integrator
        |- add_config.bat
        |- LICENSE
        |- remove_config.bat
        |- uget-integrator.bat
        |- uget-integrator.py
        |- python-3.6.4
    |- uGet
        |- bin
            |- uget.exe
            |- other files
        |- other files and folders
    
  4. Execute uget-integrator\add_config.bat to create required configuration files and Registry entries

Install browser add-on

Install the uGet Integration extension.
