As the title suggests, I want to create an extension program and install it as a crx file after expanding the pack, but it is not activated. Is it possible to forcibly set this part as a registry setting or policy editor to allow it? If it is allowed, I would appreciate it if you could provide a solution.

    Hi @andy201043

    Do you want to active the .crx file extension you install in Edge?
    If so, you can try to set this policy: ExtensionInstallAllowlist. You can enable this policy and set the extension ID you want to active in it.
