From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Beardsley, James Sent: Thursday, July 09, 2015 10:21 AM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: [mssms] Google Chrome Extensions and plugins There isn’t a way directly through ConfigMgr but I wrote a powershell script that you can deploy with CM. The script inventories the extensions and outputs the list of Extension ID to a .txt file for each PC. Unfortunately, that only gets you half of the way though. With the extension ID, you have to then go to the AppStore and figure out what app it is. I never could figure out a way to automate that part. Create a share on a server that all PC’s would have access to called ChromeExtensions and push this out to all PC’s with Chrome. Once it runs, it’ll create the txt file on the share you created in the format you see below. From there, you can do you lookup on the AppStore individually or what I ended up doing was used Powershell to get the content of each .txt file and put them all into one big spreadsheet. If (Test-Path "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Google\Chrome\User Data") { $ExtensionFolders = Get-ChildItem -Path "$env:LOCALAPPDATA\Google\Chrome\User Data" -Recurse | Where {$_.Name -eq "Extensions"} | Get-ChildItem | select -ExpandProperty Name If (($ExtensionFolders).count -gt 0) { $ExtensionFolders | Out-File "\\<server>\ChromeExtensions\$env:COMPUTERNAME`_$env:USERNAME`_ChromeExtensionIDs.txt<file:///\\%3cserver%3e\ChromeExtensions\$env:COMPUTERNAME%60_$env:USERNAME%60_ChromeExtensionIDs.txt>" -Force } } From: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Fast, David D.

I know you can find out the CRX file and I know that would run in a different memory space so maybe there would be a way with a Software Monitoring Rule? There are Group Policy Templates to Blacklist/Whitelist and deploy extensions and other options with that, that you will probably want to check out. Also be sure to set up AppLocker, otherwise users can continue to install the consumer versions of Google Chrome and get around such restrictions. ----------------------------------------------- Adam Juelich Pulaski Community School District<http://www.pulaskischools.org> Client Management Specialist 920-822-6075 On Wed, Jul 8, 2015 at 3:44 PM, Fast, David D. <[email protected]<mailto:[email protected]>> wrote: Is there a way to inventory Google Chrome extensions and plugins with SCCM 2007? My client is planning to deploy Chrome Enterprise to all users as an optional alternative browser; their security team is trying to review extensions and plugins for allow/disallow considerations. They currently have a number of users with the personal version of Chrome installed, and want to know if we can determine which extensions/plugins are currently installed for Chrome users.
