- Note: The external extensions file is read only if every directory in the path is owned by the user <code>root</code>, has the group <code>admin</code>, and is not world readable. The path must also be free of symbolic links. These restrictions prevent an unprivileged user from causing extensions to be installed for all users.

Mark Mentovai 2011/10/17 18:53:57 “not word readable” is wrong.

Sam Kerner (Chrome) 2011/10/17 19:35:16 Done.

Note: The above path was added in Chrome 16. Prior versions used a different path, which is now deprecated:

<code>/Applications/Google Chrome.app/Contents/Extensions/</code> .
