Chrome – Since Google Chrome 28 update ALL extensions have stopped working

google-chromegoogle-chrome-extensions

I have just rebooted my machine, restarted Chrome, and been auto-updated to Chrome 28 (with the yellow menu button). And now all my non-Google extensions have stopped working?!

  • Cookies 1.7
  • Window Resizer 0.7.0.2
  • TooManyTabs for Chrome 2.0.0 (Still shows number of tabs on icon)
  • ColorZilla 0.5.3

All are the latest version as far as I can tell. Trying to open any of these extensions results in a "This web page has not been found" message (as in the screenshot)?!

Chrome 28 - Extensions stopped working

All the Google-own extensions (Google Mail Checker, Screen Capture and Hangouts) work OK.

Any idea how to make them work again? I can't seem to find anything on the Google, so maybe it's just me?!

EDIT: I initially stated it was just the non-Google extensions that had stopped working, however, it is in fact ALL extensions. I naively thought that because the Google extensions still show the correct icon on the toolbar they were OK, but they are not. They report the same error when trying to open them.

I believe reinstall your extensions should solve your problem.

Now, where does TooManyTabs store it's data..

For you export your data stored do:

  • Click the icon of TooManyTabs.

  • Click in Import / Export.

  • On next screen, click in Export for backup, if you prefer, save the contents in a text file:

  • To import the data, follow the steps screen 1 and click in Import:
