applicationize - Stopped Producing the CRX file

[benmifsud]

https://applicationize.me/ for me has stopped working, the site does not produce a crx file but provides a empty zip folder.

I have used this amazing application for my Google site which worked perfectly. It required an update of a new site which I tried to convert to CRX using the https://applicationize.me/ site but could not.

I have had a notice from Google that my original app is no longer supported on the new Chrome and was uninstalled and removed.

Does https://applicationize.me/ need an update?

Hi @benmifsud,
It seems to be working fine for me. It produces a .zip archive with a .crx file inside.

Which website URL are you entering when trying to use Applicationize ?

However, I did notice that Chrome finally started blocking installed Applicationize extensions from launching:

Therefore, I urge you to find an alternative solution. There are two recommended solutions:

1. Google Chrome comes with a built-in feature called Application Shortcuts. It basically makes it possible to convert any web page (or web app) into a desktop app by clicking the hamburger icon in the top right -> More Tools -> "Create Shortcut" and ticking "Open as window".

2. You can also take a look at nativefier as an alternative.
