Extensions disappear when I close and open Google Chrome
- by PavanM
I am running the latest version of Google Chrome 23.0.1271.97 (Official Build 171054) m on Windows 7. Any new extension I install simply disappears(not disabled, total disappearance) once I close and re-start google chrome. This is not happening to one of my old extension. It stays there across chrome re-starts.
I tried everything google help suggested-
I created new user profile by renaming the Defaults folder
I checked for any permission change that the extensions might have undergone. This is not the case.
I am not running in developer mode.
This happens when I close ALL instances of google chrome. Even if one instance of chrome is running, this doesn't happen. But I cant have an instance of Google Chrome always running :(
I even reported the issue to Google Chrome team to no avail and new.crbug.com is offline. And I skimmed through many threads opened for the same issue only to find souls like me. SE is my last resort :)
