Both setup scripts ended by telling you to load the folder unpacked, which is
the one install that cannot update itself - and the policy install they moved
to next does nothing on an unmanaged machine. Enrolment is the step that
actually matters: with it, the extension arrives from the Admin console already
force-installed, and there is nothing else to configure on the box.
So step 7 now asks for an enrolment token instead. The Windows script elevates
itself for it - the token is machine-scoped, and that is the only UAC prompt in
the whole install.

Enrolling is what lifts the off-store restriction without joining a domain, and
it is one machine-scoped token in both places Chrome looks: HKLM on Windows, a
file under /etc/opt/chrome/policies/enrollment on Linux. Both scripts take
--remove, and both say plainly that removing the token locally does not release
the seat in the Admin console.
