Install Extension from Group Policy Issue

We are trying to install our extensions via a group policy and it doesn’t seem to be working for us. They don’t seem to be staying installed. Users are having to reinstall the extensions daily. We have used the below steps and have reviewed the Chrome Group Policies to troubleshoot the issue. Any help would be appreciated. We are using Citrix to deploy our desktops.

Install from Group Policy
You can also install the UiPath Extension for Chrome by using Group Policies. This method silently installs the extension and enables it, without requiring user confirmation.

This installation method requires that the target machine has access to the Chrome Web Store ( https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx and https://clients2.googleusercontent.com/crx ).

To install via policy, perform the following steps:

  1. In the ExtensionInstallForceList policy, add philfmnjbnkhlkdaofflpdmflfofkfdb;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx .
  2. In the NativeMessagingAllowList policy, add com.uipath.chromenativemsg_v2 .
  3. On the target machine, install the UiPath extension for Chrome with administrator privileges using the following command:
    C:\Program Files\UiPath\Studio\UiPath\SetupExtensions.exe /chromepolicyglobal
