InternOS Application Companion - Windows setup

ALREADY INSTALLED?
Keep the folder you originally loaded. Updating files there and clicking Reload
on the existing extension keeps its identity, profile and duplicate protection.
Do not remove/reinstall it or load another folder just to update. If you loaded
the repository's extension folder, pull the updated files and click Reload.

NEW INSTALLATION - NO MANUAL EXTRACTION REQUIRED
Download install-internos-companion.ps1 from InternOS and run it with PowerShell.
It contains the companion files, prepares a permanent folder, and copies that
exact folder path. No administrator rights or browser changes are required.
In Edge, type edge://extensions in the address bar yourself. Enable Developer
mode, click Load unpacked, paste the copied folder path, then Select Folder.
For Chrome use chrome://extensions. Keep the prepared folder after setup.

IF POWERSHELL IS BLOCKED, USE THIS ZIP
Right-click internos-companion.zip, choose Extract All, and keep the destination
shown by Windows. Open that extracted folder: manifest.json must be visible.
Copy THAT folder's address, then use Load unpacked as above. The ZIP file itself
and its parent Downloads folder are not the extension folder. No policy changes
or administrator privileges are needed for this fallback.

AFTER INSTALLING
Return to InternOS in the same browser and profile, then refresh the page. Open
the companion settings to import your confirmed packet and grant employer access.
Automatic final submission is a separate explicit choice in those settings.

This is local developer setup. InternOS is not yet published in a browser store.
Browser installation and permission prompts require your action.
