If you frequently look up manuals and user guides on manualsfile.com and want to save your own notes right next to them, ManualsFile Notes Extension is built for you. This lightweight browser extension now works on both Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge — letting you read manuals, take notes, and bookmark products, with everything stored directly on your computer, never on a third-party server.
ManualsFile Notes is a browser extension designed specifically for users of manualsfile.com. It allows you to:
Unlike many cloud-based note-taking apps, ManualsFile Notes requires no account and never sends your note content to any server. You stay in full control of your data. And because it is available on two official browser stores — Chrome Web Store and Microsoft Edge Add-ons — you can keep the same workflow no matter which Chromium-based browser you use.
Whenever you're viewing a manual, you can add a note attached to that specific document page. No more switching to a separate note app and trying to remember which manual a page belonged to.
Save manuals to your personal list without manually copying links. Your product list is always ready in the sidebar for quick access.
You choose the folder on your computer. Notes, images, and PDF files all live on your device through the browser's File System Access API — supported by both Chrome and Edge.
Supports HTML, Markdown, or plain text, lets you paste images directly, and auto-saves while you type.
Preview in A4 format, print directly, or download as PDF for sharing and archiving.
Quickly find products and notes using product: and note: filters.
Attach product images and save manual PDF files alongside your notes.
ManualsFile Notes is officially published on both major Chromium browser stores, so you can install it from whichever store matches your daily browser:
| Browser | Store | Install link |
|---|---|---|
| Google Chrome | Chrome Web Store | ManualsFile Notes — Chrome Web Store |
| Microsoft Edge | Microsoft Edge Add-ons | ManualsFile Notes — Microsoft Edge Add-ons |
Both listings deliver the same extension with identical features: page-linked notes, bookmarking, rich editor, smart search, gallery, and local file storage. The only real difference is the store interface and the button labels during installation, so the steps to install are slightly different — you'll find both below.
Good to know: Your notes are stored as files in a folder on your computer, not inside a browser profile. That means your data stays with you even if you switch between Chrome and Edge.
Getting started takes less than a minute:
Note: The extension works only on manualsfile.com, so the toolbar button becomes active when you visit the site. On both Chrome and Edge, the behavior is exactly the same.
