Installing the MV3 extensions without upgrading UiPathStudio.msi

1. Download and extract UiPathExtensions_MV3.zip on the target machine
2. Make sure that the location where UiPathExtensions_MV3 is deployed is whitelisted for execution
   (all users should be able to read files from that folder, the antivirus should not block it etc.)
   A good location would be: C:\Program Files\UiPath\UiPathExtensions_MV3
3. From an elevated command prompt run UpgradeBrowserExtensions_MV3.exe to automatically upgrade the Chrome/Edge extensions to MV3.
4. Or, run the following commands to install the extensions separately from an elevated command prompt:
   SetupExtensions.exe /chrome-enterprise /silent
SetupExtensions.exe /edge-enterprise /silent
5. If the client is using the ExtensionInstallForceList Group Policy to manage browser extensions then follow the instructions from here for Chrome and Edge.
