Download files using the specified BitBrowser/AdsPower window

1. Click Extension - Runavelo in the upper right corner of the BitBrowser/AdsPower window to see the envId of the window. The envId is automatically created by Runavelo. Each BitBrowser/AdsPower window has a unique envId. Uninstalling and reinstalling the Runavelo extension will cause the envId to change.
