In a coup in which he became the First Consul of France.
To his credit, the idea of a coup against the lawful government did not originate with him, but he was invited to join because he controlled the military forces that were charged with the protection of the Directory Government. (He was brought on board as the muscle of the coup, but used his brain to offer the legislature a possible Constitution and they chose him to ascend to the lead position on the Consul. He graciously accepted their kind offer.)
The existing government was in disarray and was unpopular.another factor was that the people saw napoleon as a strong and capable leader who had more to offer.
Yes
Napoleon was appointed First Consulate by Sieyles a counter-revolutionist who sought to use Napoleon the war hero as a pawn. Napoleon took advantage of his position and held a coup d'etat making himself consul for life and later emperor. Those who were against the revolution were quick to throw their support behind Napoleon, hoping for restoration of order.
The difficult military and economic situation in which France was in 1799 and the ineptitude of Directory to manage the same, led to the Coup d'ètat of 18 Brumaire (November 9-10th) and the rise of a new government called Consulate, of which Napoleon was soon appointed First Consul.
One key factor that enabled Napoleon to seize control of France was the political instability and chaos following the French Revolution. The power vacuum created by the collapse of the monarchy and the subsequent conflicts among revolutionary factions allowed him to position himself as a stabilizing force. Additionally, his military successes and popularity among the military and the populace bolstered his rise to power, culminating in his coup d'état in 1799.
Napoleon was short, so the French didn't see him coming.
