问题
Background:
- I manage an offline network of workstations.
- I have written a chrome extension that needs to be in the browser for our webapp to function
- I have published it through the chrome store (but not made it public)
Question:
- How do I install this extension without the internet
What I've tried:
- Windows GPO: Requires the update URL to be http://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx
- Windows Registry: same URL problem
- Unpacked extensions: prompts users, requires developer tools, and disables the extension when chrome is restarted.
- install crx: disables the extension when chrome is restarted.
Any other ideas, or ways around this? Chrome version 48.
回答1:
I was able to do this on a regular chrome installation by doing the following:
- Download the extension in crx format - how to download a crx file from the chrome web store for a given id
- Unzip the crx file
- I had to rename the _metadata folder to metadata
- Open the chrome extensions page
- Enable Developer mode
- Click "Load unpacked extension..."
- Select the unzipped folder
This worked for me when I needed to install Advanced REST client.

I got it to work actually, sadly forgot about this post until now.
I had the Business version installed as @gerardnimo suggested.
What I wound up doing is
1) setup and IIS server to serve both the CRX and the update xml. based on this guide. https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/autoupdate
2) Then i was able to install the extension via group policy.

Here is a thread that I've found. He suggests that you can use Google Chrome for Business.
Since September 3, 2015, Installing Chrome extensions off-line no longer work (and here ) due to Google trying to prevent malicious extensions being downloaded and installed. To install an extension off-line today, require you to install a signed pre-packaged full Chrome install, using Googles Chrome for Business. This functionality is controlled by a policy list. Or according to this post, you can use their Dev or Canary channels to run any extension. Their latest builds can be found here
