|
| +As of M33,
|
| +Windows stable/beta channel users can only download extensions hosted
|
| +in the Chrome Web Store (see
|
| +<a href="http://blog.chromium.org/2013/11/protecting-windows-users-from-malicious.html">Protecting Windows users from malicious extensions</a>).

|
| +Previously when off-store extensions were supported,
|
| +it was possible to have the native binaries and the extension be updated in lock step.
|
| +However, extensions hosted on the Chrome Web Store are updated
|
| +via the Chrome update mechanism which developers do not control.
|
| +Extension developers should be careful about updating extensions
|
| +that have a dependency on the native binary
|
| +(for example, legacy extensions using <a href="npapi.html">NPAPI</a>).
