Easy ADP gets disabled after first use

[Brian Spalding]

If I Add Easy ADP to my Chrome Extensions, upon exiting the Browser, when I Relaunch Chrome Browser, I'm given a message stating: Not from Chrome Web Store. It has been disabled and will not allow me to re-enable it.

Found this unfortunate article: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/2811969

I'll have to search the web to discover how other Chrome extensions get beta tested in non-dev versions of Chrome. It seems like that would be a pretty serious shortcoming of Chrome.

I found this promising article that suggests there's a way to put an extension on the Chrome store (which I am planning on doing anyway) but explicitly limit the users who have access to it.

I ran into this, too, and I can't re-enable it... #sadface :(

It looks like Windows users are won't be able to manually install the extension. Why Chrome even allows extensions to be dragged in at all is beyond me.

I will go ahead and put the extension on the Chrome web store and see how I can distribute it to selected individuals without opening it up to the public at large.

Easy ADP has been published on the Chrome web store to select beta users. You can use the link below to install the extension but you have to be registered as a beta user by me and signed into Chrome using the email address you supplied to me.
