chrome: Is it possible to 'quiet' install AdBlock?
Posted: Fri Mar 07, 2014 7:08 pm
I know Chrome >v.25 requires the little 'bubble' notification regarding the extensions, however- I'd like to prevent the 'AdBlock has been installed' page from appearing.
Here's the situation:
We have ~1,000 shared 'classroom' linux computers using Chrome. We'd like to install ABP on these machines to prevent ads from showing up (especially for the younger kids).
Because of the way that the computers are managed, we remove the user profiles after each logout, so every time one logs in, it's a fresh, clean slate.
Unfortunately, because the Chrome .config folder is removed, every fresh time Chrome is launched, one would be greeted with the 'ABP has been installed!' screen. Not very useful.
Is there a way to deploy the extension and prevent it from showing this splash page?
Thanks!
