SOLVED Allow All chrome extensions possible

Post#1 by dirkjk » 04 Sep 2020, 13:59

How can I allow all chrome extensions to the browser sessions? I dont have a web page to point the browser preferences parameter to and I dont want to create a list of allowed extensions.

I have it working in that the extensions are alllowed but I seem to have extra lines / syntax problem... I get a page at startup that has checkbox's for Make Google the default browser and another for Automatically send usage statistics and crash reports to Google.

How can I get rid of this page or just add a line that allows for all extensions?

TIA
Dirk

Hello Dirk,

You could use this parameter to remove Chrome's extension blocklist policy from the kiosk:

Code: Select all

run_command=sed -i '/ExtensionInstallBlacklist/d' $json
Thanks
Please add [Solved] to your thread title if the solution was found.

Thanks, that syntax seemed to work.
