Chrome 66.0 unsupported extensions disabled

Question

Hi guys,&nbsp;I am currently struggling with the TestComplete Chrome Extension on my Server 2016 Machine.&nbsp;Since i updated to Chrome 66.0 this machine causes errors during test execution because Chrome disables the SmartBear Test Extension.&nbsp;The funny thing is, all other VMs do not suffer from the same issue even if they have Chrome 66.0 installed too.(Win 10, 7, 8.1, 2012R2, 2012, 2008R2, 2008)&nbsp;&nbsp;If i start Chrome 66.0 manually with enabled extension, nothing happens.The Extension wont get disabled and no issues with Chrome.If i run TC/TE and Chrome is getting opened through the scripts the PopUp "Unsupported extensions disabled" will appear and Chrome disables the SmartBear Test Extension.&nbsp;I tried reinstalling the Extension with and without Developer Enabled (in Chrome) but this did not work.&nbsp;Would be great if someone can give me further ideas on how to solve this.&nbsp;Cheers,Constantin

If TC/TE are being executed as a different user or "As Administrator", that opens a different profile for Chrome which might not have the extension enabled.&nbsp; What I would do is let TC/TE open the browser and then manually enable the extension.&nbsp;&nbsp;If you continue to have problems with this, I think it would be better handled by SmartBear support directly&nbsp;https://support.smartbear.com/message/?prod=TestComplete
