Chrome Extension for 2021.4.4 being disabled

Hello!

I just learned that MV2 extensions are being deprecated but, if I’m reading this correctly (Studio - Extension for Chrome), the version I’m using should be an MV3 extension. Am I correct or misreading the documentation?

I ask because I found that a few of our bots have had the extension disabled, but I’m not sure if it’s related to the deprecation (meaning it is an MV2 extension) or if it’s due to a policy that is being pushed down for a different reason. If it’s the former, we’re in the planning stages of upgrading our Studio/Assistants but thought we still had until June 2025 to complete it. If the latter, we have a ticket open with our IT group to determine what policies they’re pushing that didn’t take this extension into account.

I saw information in an old topic (Chrome extension update (versions 18.3 to 21.4) - #27 by mdiv), that leads me to believe that the Chrome Extension for 2021.4.4 was upgraded, but I’m not sure if that version (9.0.6827) is MV2 or MV3.

I appreciate any insight!

(For reference) This is what I’m seeing currently:

As per studio version looks like mv2 extension is with you

Now coming to issue…depreciation doesnt mean it will get disabled but means you would not receive any updates or support…once extension is installed it should be working online or offline as well…

Mostly it must be a policy issue…typically group policiies can create issues

Or even chrome upgradation might have created issues

Cheers

Thanks for clearing up that question for me regarding that version note. It seems Google/Chrome is disabling MV2 extensions but there should be a group policy that will allow for the temporary continued use until June(ish):

Anyway, I appreciate your help!
