Do the same work in FDM 5.1 / 3.x?
A little bit more info would also help, particularly OS ver and Chrome ver.

Even with the extension installed and sync from Chrome in my Windows PC, FDM cannot interrupt downloads in Chromium on my Linux PC. I expect it could, since the 2 browsers are actually one. In Settings, it does not detect Chromium either.
Edit: Nevermind the checkbox "intercept downloads...", FDM cannot takes over downloads from Chromium with or without that checkbox enabled. Firefox works fine though.
Uh, no, Chromium is not Chrome. Chromium is the actual FOSS version without all of the Google additions, so it is essentially a different browser.
However, if Chromium can use the Chrome store to install addons, that's all you really need to get it working, IIRC.

One issue thought is that I cannot resume a google drive download( reports that "resource has changed). Not sure if it is FDM or the OS.

Thank you for the detailed info. I've been slowly but surely making my way to try to get the Linux version working in Sabayon Linux, a Gentoo derivative - never even once considered that the Cuda dependency could be causing me an issue, as I only have nVidia cards (using nVidia drivers, not generic), and figured that the Cuda dependency should be fine.
Now I have something else to try. I'll give it a shot over the weekend.
