Question Image

An employee wants to install an extension from the Chrome Web Store named Grammar Friend, with extension ID “fninibicajhgibfnjcgnimlmdhccodfl”.

What occurs when the user opens the Grammar Friend page in the Chrome Web Store?

  • A The Add to Chrome button will be available to click and the user can install the extension.
  • B A blue banner that says “This item’s installation is required by your organization” will appear and the Remove from Chrome button will be grayed out.
  • C The Remove from Chrome button will be available because the extension is already installed.
  • D A red banner that says “Your administrator has blocked this item (ID: fninibicajhgibfnjcgnimlmdhccodfl)” will appear and the Add to Chrome button will be grayed out.
Explanation

The extension is listed in ExtensionInstallForcelist, which silently installs the extension and prevents users from uninstalling or disabling it through Chrome. Its organization-required status is therefore shown, and removal is unavailable. ExtensionInstallForcelist supersedes the blocklist policy.
