You will not create a traditional seed phrase. Instead, the system generates a unique MPC key share locally on your device. This step requires defining email addresses for transaction approval. A minimum of two distinct email accounts is mandatory, with one serving as your daily administrator.<br><br><br>Input the primary administrative email.<br>Add at least one separate collaborator email for policy enforcement.<br>Confirm each address via the verification codes sent.<br><br><br>Define a transaction policy within the dashboard. For example, set a rule where any transfer exceeding 0.1 ETH requires confirmation from 2 out of 3 pre-authorized email accounts.<br><br>Connecting to Web3 Applications<br><br>Navigate to a decentralized finance platform. Click its "Connect" button. A pop-up will display available connection methods; select the installed browser add-on. A signature request will appear in the add-on's interface, detailing the connection permissions. Review and approve it using your configured email approval workflow. The application is now linked, using your secured infrastructure as the signing mechanism.<br><br>Regaining Access to Linked Platforms<br><br>If you switch browsers or devices, regaining control over your connected applications is straightforward. Re-install the browser add-on on the new system. During initialization, choose "Recover access" instead of creating a new vault. Authenticate using your original administrative email. You will receive a distributed key share recovery sequence, requiring approvals from your pre-defined policy members (e.g., 2-of-3 emails).<br><br><br>Have your collaborator email accounts accessible.<br>Respond to the automated approval requests sent to those addresses.<br>Once the threshold of approvals is met, your complete access profile, including all application authorizations, is restored.<br><br>Policy Configuration for Safety<br><br>Treat transaction policies as your primary security layer. Segment assets by creating distinct vaults: one for high-value, long-term holdings with strict, multi-day approval rules, and another for frequent, low-value interactions with lower thresholds. Regularly audit the list of connected sites within the add-on's dashboard and revoke permissions for unused applications.<br><br><br>This model ensures no single point of failure. The private key never exists in one place, and transaction execution is gated by your customizable, multi-party rules.<br><br>Fireblocks Wallet Extension Setup and DApp Recovery Guide<br><br>Install the software directly from the Chrome Web Store or official Firefox Add-ons portal to guarantee authenticity and avoid malicious copies.<br><br><br>Configuration requires your organization's Fireblocks workspace credentials. A designated administrator must provision your user account and assign specific policy rules governing transaction types, asset limits, and authorized counterparties before you can proceed. This step is non-negotiable for institutional security.<br><br><br>Connect the tool to a decentralized application by selecting its icon in your browser, choosing the correct vault account, and approving the connection request. Ensure the DApp's URL is verified to prevent phishing. Transaction proposals within the application will appear as notifications for review; multi-party approval, as dictated by your policy, is often mandatory for execution.<br><br><br>Regaining access to linked applications after a browser reset or on a new machine is straightforward. Re-install the add-on and re-authenticate with your corporate credentials. All pre-configured vaults and their associated permissions will repopulate automatically. You must then manually reconnect to each DApp's interface, but no reconfiguration of underlying asset policies is needed.<br><br><br>For unresolved connection issues, clear the browser's cache for the specific DApp site, verify the extension has the latest version, and confirm your organization's transaction policy hasn't been modified to block the interaction. Persistent failures may stem from the DApp's own smart contract updates requiring a fresh connection cycle.<br><br>FAQ:<br>I installed the Fireblocks browser extension but it's asking for a "Recovery File." Where do I get this and is it safe to upload?<br><br>You get the Recovery File directly from your Fireblocks Platform Administrator. This is not a file you create yourself. When an administrator sets up a new user (like you) for the Fireblocks Wallet Extension, they use the Fireblocks console to generate a unique, encrypted Recovery File. They should send this file to you through a secure channel. It is safe to upload this specific file into the extension because it is encrypted and contains the necessary data to connect your extension to your organization's vaults and policies. Never upload a file from an untrusted source.<br><br>Can I use the Fireblocks extension to connect to any dapp, like Uniswap or OpenSea?<br><br>Yes, the extension is built for this purpose. After setup, when you visit a supported dapp, the extension will typically detect it and prompt you to connect your wallet. You'll select the vault and wallet address you wish to use. A key benefit of Fireblocks is that the transaction will then follow your organization's pre-set approval workflows. Instead of signing directly, you'll submit the transaction for review according to your company's rules, which may require additional approvals via the [https://extension-wallet.org/wallet-fireblocks.php fireblocks wallet first time setup] mobile app or web console.<br><br>What happens if my computer crashes or I uninstall the extension? Do I need to go through setup again?<br><br>If you simply reinstall the extension on the same or a new computer, you will need to repeat the initial setup process. This means you will require a new Recovery File from your Fireblocks administrator. Your wallet funds and access are not stored locally in the extension; it acts as a gateway. All assets and permissions are managed on the Fireblocks platform. The recovery file is a one-time access key. Keep it secure until setup is complete, but you do not need it for daily use after that.<br><br>I'm trying to approve a transaction from a dapp, but it's stuck. What should I check?<br><br>First, check the transaction status in the Fireblocks extension popup. If it's pending, it's waiting for the required approvals. The approver (often you or a colleague) needs to open the Fireblocks mobile app or web console to review and approve it. Second, confirm you selected the correct vault and wallet address that has permissions for the asset you're trying to use. Third, ensure the dapp transaction itself hasn't expired in its interface. Finally, verify your organization's policy allows transactions for that type of dapp and asset. If issues persist, contact your Fireblocks platform administrator to review the transaction log and policy rules.<br>
