not working on linux. useless

Vince Kuraitis2024年2月3日

I couldn't get it to open. Under details, I tried pinning it to my toolbar. Clicking the toolbar icon got it to open. But then it asks you to designate a specific Chromebook, and mine isn't on the list. Worthless.

Excelente, pude recuperar mi Macbook Air 2010.

Benny Doerksen2024年2月1日

Works from a chromebook/chromeOS - if you try from a windows device it will get through everything except "writing media" which is the last stage. It will hang indefinitely there. I have ran chrome as an admin, tried installing from a local recovery package, pre-formatted the USB drive, etc... nothing seems to help.

What a waste of time - I can't get past the first page of creating the USB drive - I've decided to disengoogle my whole life and get rid of the rubbish they are selling.

Creates bootable recovery media (USB drives and SD cards) for Chromebooks, OnHub routers, ChromeOS Flex, and Google Meet Compute Systems

Helps users reinstall or recover ChromeOS on their devices when the operating system is corrupted, needs to be reinstalled, or when setting up ChromeOS Flex on non-Chromebook hardware

1. Click extension icon → opens popup window. 2. Welcome screen loads recovery configuration from dl.google.com. 3. Select device model (auto-detected via hwid or manually chosen). 4. Insert USB drive or SD card and select it as target. 5. Confirm and click 'Create now' to write recovery image. 6. Wait for download and write to complete. 7. Done — use recovery media to recover device.

Target users: Chromebook owners needing OS recovery / Users installing ChromeOS Flex on non-Chromebook hardware / IT administrators managing ChromeOS devices / OnHub router owners needing firmware recovery / Google Meet Hardware administrators

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

Monetization

No paid features detected

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.

Confidence: 99
Payment platform: --
Source: AI / High
Login required: No
Reason: 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.
