Install the extension from the update server during setup
Both installers ended by telling you to load the folder unpacked, which is the one install that can never update itself. They now offer the policy install as a last step instead, and only fall back to those instructions when it is declined or fails. Windows writes to the user's own policy hive rather than HKLM, so the step needs no elevation and no separate admin shell; -Scope Machine is still there for every-account installs. Linux gets the counterpart script — a managed policy file under /etc, which is root-only because Chrome reads policy from nowhere else on that platform.
