Download Android Apps From Android Market Directly to PC

The Android Market is great for getting Apps for your Android phone but it is kinda annoying that you have to download then on your phone and can't do it on your PC, especially if you don't have access to a fast Internet Connection on your phone. But here is simple solution.

1. First thing you need to do is make sure you have the latest version(17.x) of Google Chrome. If you don't then just open Google Chrome, click on the wrench icon and then About Google Chrome. Chrome will automatically check for updates.
2. Once the updates are installed close and reopen Chrome. Then head on down here and install APK Downloader 1.0. After that close Google Chrome. Head to the start menu and find Google Chrome inside its folder in All Programs. Then right click the icon and select Properties. Then in the space for Target edit the link. Replace the ending \chrome.exe with \chrome.exe --ignore-certificate-errors. The space is important. (Reminder: You need to use this shortcut for downloading apps don't click on other shortcuts which have not been modified.)
3. Next you will need to find your Device ID and your Emails. If you don't know then install this app and find it out. Once you note it down open the APK Downloader App Page and then enter the details asked such as Device ID etc. and login.
4. Now to download an App onto your PC from the Android Market just head on down to the Android Market, open the page of the App you want to download and click on the APK Downloader Icon in your Omnibar.

That's it now you can download Apps directly from the Android Market on Chrome. If you have any doubts feel free to comment.
