Nexus Mods Sensible Archive
Description from store

This plugin changes the Nexus Mods archive files page on mods. By default, the page doesn't allow for downloads of mods. Normally, accessing the mod download requires using Inspect Element to find the file ID and then manually pasting it in a link for the download, which I found ridiculous.

This plugin modifies the archive page to include both a mod manager and a manual download option. Unlike a standard download, clicking it will take you to the download file nexus page, but clicking the "Start Download" button will initiate the download.

This plugin doesn't currently unhide the archive pages of certain mods. However, if the archive page isn't accessible for a given mod, simply put "&category=archived" at the end of the files tab link, and you will be taken to the archive page.

This plugin was made for the skyrim modding guide, Lexy's Legacy of the Dragonborn, which you follow here https://lexyslotd.com/

Saves me the hassle of tweaking URLs into direct download links manually by simply adding a DL button. I know the risks of in-game bugs and issues with old files, so I don't mind downloading archived versions from time to time.

Does what it says on the tin. Brilliant, simple solution to nexusmods' inane decisions.

This was a lifesaver when I accidentally removed a mod thru vortex and the archive link to download was gone!! Thank you to the author of this extension.

For some reason it keeps disabling itself after page reload. Not sure if it is a Chrome's issue, or Nexus website's, or another extension's...

One of the most important extensions in the history of mankind.

This is going to save me hours in the future. Especially for large mod lists like Lexy's Legacy of the Dragonborn https://lexyslotd.com/
