Does anybody know how to re-enable your own extensions after they were disabled by the Chrome v35 update?
(Mostly greasemonkey scripts in my case, thus simple .js files previously drag-n-dropped in to the extension windows. )
When I started up Chrome today I got the warning that some non-ChromeWebStore extensions were disabled.
More info was giving on this link:
Extensions disabled by Chrome
You're seeing this notification because one or more of your Chrome
extensions has been turned off to make Chrome safer. The extensions
didn't come from the Chrome Web Store or were installed without your
permission.For your protection, you can only use Chrome extensions that you get
from the Chrome Web Store.To see a list of your extensions:
- Click the Chrome menu Chrome menu on the browser toolbar.
- Select Tools.
- Select Extensions.
Extensions that have been disabled are grayed out and you won't be
able to re-enable them.
I was hoping I could still enable them by activating developer mode for my extensions but still no luck..
Any tips anyone?
P.s. this is not a duplicate from Activating a Chrome extension that is not from the Chrome Web Store as this is related to the chrome v35 update

There are really only a couple of options open to you as the ability to run the extensions has been programatically disabled with no plans to re-enable it (or at least none made public)
You can try installing from the canary channel or the developer channel releases which may allow you to still run these extensions as mentioned in Google Chrome help forum:
Alternatively, I have heard that quite a few people install Tampermonkey which then allows the running of user scripts.
Might be worth a look.
