# How is the browser extension updated?

Browser extensions are automatically updated once you push Whatfix content and widgets to the Production stage.

Info:

To know more about generating and updating extensions, see [Manage Extensions on the Whatfix Dashboard](/studio/docs/manage-extensions-on-the-whatfix-dashboard)

- **Chrome and Edge (Chromium):** This is the default browser for Whatfix. When you first access the extensions page, you see a **Generate** button. The extension is automatically updated when you push your Whatfix content to Production. ![whatfix_store_generate](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/whatfix_store_generate.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-15T08%3A01%3A31Z&se=2026-10-15T09%3A01%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=2nT5gH3idy58BJ28DHt0OGSVMW8CyOMinguVp6FwLKk%3D)
- **IE:** When you first access the extensions page, you see a **Generate** button in the IE card. The extension is automatically updated when you push your Whatfix content to Production. In IE, a downloadable installer file is generated. ![internet_explorer_generate](https://cdn.document360.io/a268766e-d74d-4619-9613-e2472f809ffb/Images/Documentation/internet_explorer_generate.png?sv=2026-02-06&spr=https&st=2026-10-15T08%3A01%3A31Z&se=2026-10-15T09%3A01%3A31Z&sr=c&sp=r&sig=2nT5gH3idy58BJ28DHt0OGSVMW8CyOMinguVp6FwLKk%3D)
