- The compiled AngularJS app (app_compiled-bundle.js at 5.5MB) is too large to fully inspect, but core workflow is well-documented through locale strings and HTML templates
- Analytics tracking to google-analytics.com is present but does not affect login or paid features assessment

This is a free Google utility tool with no payment, subscription, premium tier, or billing code. All 'pro' keyword matches are false positives hitting 'process', 'product', 'procedure' in localization strings (e.g., 'Select a product', 'recovery process'). The 'billed' match is a false positive hitting Danish 'afbrudt' (interrupted). No payment platforms, no upgrade UI, no license checks.

- The extension is a standalone local utility that uses Chrome's native APIs (chromeosInfoPrivate, imageWriterPrivate, fileSystem) to create recovery media. The workflow (select device → select target drive → write image) requires no authentication. All keyword matches for 'auth', 'session', 'token', 'userid' are false positives from Closure Library license text (AUTHORS), analytics session tracking, and autocomplete UI code tokens—not actual login flows.
OMG IT WORKED SO GOOD BECAUSE I FOUND MY OLD CHROMEBOOK AND THEN I HAVE THE NEWST CHORME OS
When it fails to write to a USB drive the whole download starts over when you want to retry with another drive. SERIOUSLY? Internet traffic is not carbon free. This is a stupid error that needs a stupid fix. come on, Google!
Sou impressionado com essa extensão por conta de seu potencial mal utilizado pela Google, uma extensão de navegador que consegue utilizar recursos de formatar um pendrive e instalar um sistema bootável, coisas que em outros sistemas temos que fazer download de programas específicos para conseguir fazer o trabalho e mesmo assim não são todos que fazem um serviço simples de maneira rápida. Além disso o próprio Chrome OS deveria vir com esse "aplicativo" préinstalado em sua lista de aplicativos padrão, pq não serve apenas para instalar um novo sistema, com algumas inclusões básicas como "formatação profunda" e colocar um nome para a mídia a ser formatada, faz com que ele seja útil de forma incrível, quem sabe futuramente até conseguimos fazer bootável de outros sistemas usando apenas essa extensão. Fantástico, apesar de ficar muito oculto na loja!
flashed ubuntu and arch linux. this works like a charm.
I hoped google provided a *working* tool. No, it chooses to get stuck on 0% writing/erasing medium. Tested on Win11, Chrome, different mediums, with admin privilages, reboots, medums formatted etc. Where can I get a choice of os images to download so I can use some tool that actually works, like Rufus?
bruh it does not work i wont use my chromebook ever again.
mala
I mean it does what it's supposed to but why is there two versions of the app, and why is the none verified version (this one) linked in the Google documentation. If I'm being honest that's a little concerning to me. Verified Extension: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/chromebook-recovery-utili/jndclpdbaamdhonoechobihbbiimdgai
PNaCl (a chrome module this extension uses) is being remove in Chrome 117 >> https://groups.google.com/a/chromium.org/g/chromium-extensions/c/v8H1UHnPotY so it is expected that this extension will no longer work in a a few days after 117 is released. Does anyone know of a replacement?
