Removing Google Chrome Extensions on Ubuntu

2009 October 29

Update: Just type “chrome://extensions” into the location bar and that brings up the extension manager

To remove Google Chrome extensions on Ubuntu you need to locate the profile for the current user and delete that extension folder.

Your Google Chrome profile on Ubuntu is stored in ~/.config/google-chrome

The “Default” folder most likely contains your profile information.  Within that folder is an extensions folder.  Go into that folder and all of your extensions will be in there.  The folder’s are named with random alphanumeric hashes, just open up a folder and find the one that has filenames similar to the extension you want to remove.
