I tested an extension for the Chrome browser: ActiveX for Chrome (from https://chrome.google.com/extensions/detail/lgllffgicojgllpmdbemgglaponefajn/).
Once I installed the extension on the system, I can enable and run my ActiveX control on the local HTML page with Chrome.
However, when I use the EO.WebBrowser.WinForm.WebControl component to load the same local HTML file, my ActiveX control doesn't work.
Is there anyway to enable and run the "ActiveX for Chrome" extension on the EO browser?
Thanks.

Hi,

You won't be able to use EO.WebBrowser with Chrome Extensions. EO.WebBrowser is based on Chrome's core HTML engine but it is not exactly Chrome browser. There are a number of things Chrome has and EO.WebBrowser does not have. For example, address lookup, extensions, auto update are things that are not part of EO.WebBrowser. EO.WebBrowser is intended to be a lightweight (relatively) browser engine that is suitable for integration into other applications, it is not intended to have everything Chrome has.

Thanks!
