16ngr1 Posted January 12, 2014 Report Share Posted January 12, 2014 In my chrome extensions list I have lots of enterprise policy installed extensions, and most of these are useless ones. Please tell me why is it and what I can do about it? Many thanks to your suggestions.

WiseCleaner Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hi, I don't know why are they here, but if you are sure that you don't need them, you can Uncheck Enabled, then they will not run again. Like this: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xilolee Posted January 13, 2014 Report Share Posted January 13, 2014 Hi 16ngr1! 1) Download adwcleaner portable (click) and run it. If it finds something malicious, post a screenshot or write here what is it, then clean it. 2) Download wise care 365 portable (click), extract it and put it on your desired/preferred folder. 3) Double left-click wisecare365.exe, click custom checkup, select/tick all entries (or the entries that you prefer), click ok, click checkup now, wait until the scan finishes, click fix now. 4) Click the third tab at top: system tuneup On the left, click the fourth tab: startup manager Remove unnecessary items (keep enabled antivirus and processor items) 5) Reset chrome to its default settings Keep us informed.

16ngr1 Posted January 23, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 23, 2014 I think that chrome://policy tell me that these extensions have been installed using a policy value. How do I edit this value Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wisecleaner_admin Posted January 27, 2014 Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 Hi 16ngr1, It seems like your Chrome or your computer is established in Enterprise Policy. I'm trying to rebuild it. If you want to learn more about Chrome for Business and Education, you can browse this page. HERE You try to check two areas: 1, open C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\ can you find this file master_preferences ? If yes, please make a copy to another folder, then delete it. If this cannot work, restore the master_preferences 2, click Start menu, type gpedit.msc in search box and press Enter. Navigate to Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Classic Administrative Templates > Google > Google Chrome > Extensions, open Configure the list of force-installed extensions , click Show, remove the extension that one you don't want. If you don't want all, just click Disable. I'm not sure this can work, just a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
16ngr1 Posted January 27, 2014 Author Report Share Posted January 27, 2014 If I can tell you, my user is within a school domain. I found out that some other users within the domain have the same extensions installed so maybe I need to contact the network admin to find this out?

wisecleaner_admin Posted January 28, 2014 Report Share Posted January 28, 2014 Do you try my method? If it cannot work, you'd better to contact the network admin. click Start menu, type gpedit.msc in search box and press Enter. Navigate to Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Classic Administrative Templates > Google > Google Chrome > Extensions, open Configure the list of force-installed extensions , clickShow, remove the extension that one you don't want.
