'caption': '''Configure the list of force-installed extensions''',
'desc': '''Allows you to specify a list of extensions that will be installed silently, without user interaction.
- Each item of the list is a string, that contains an extension ID and an update URL delimited by a semicolon (<ph name="SEMICOLON">;</ph>). For example: <ph name="EXTENSION_POLICY_EXAMPLE">lcncmkcnkcdbbanbjakcencbaoegdjlp;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx</ph>. For each item, <ph name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph> will retrieve the extension specified by the ID from the specified URL and silently install it. The following pages explain how you can host extensions on your own server. About update URLs: <ph name="LINK_TO_EXTENSION_DOC1">http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/autoupdate.html</ph> , about hosting extensions in general: <ph name="LINK_TO_EXTENSION_DOC2">http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/hosting.html</ph>.
+ Each item of the list is a string that contains an extension ID and an update URL delimited by a semicolon (<ph name="SEMICOLON">;</ph>). The extension ID is the 32-letter string found e.g. on <ph name="CHROME_EXTENSIONS_LINK">chrome://extensions</ph> when in developer mode. The update URL should point to an Update Manifest XML document as described at <ph name="LINK_TO_EXTENSION_DOC1">http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/autoupdate.html</ph>.
- Users will be unable to uninstall extensions that are specified by this policy. If you remove an extension from this list, then it will be automatically uninstalled by <ph name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph>. Extensions that are blacklisted in 'ExtensionInstallBlacklist' and not whitelisted, cannot be force-installed by this policy.
+ For each item, <ph name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph> will retrieve the extension specified by the extension ID from the update service at the specified update URL and silently install it.
+
+ For example, <ph name="EXTENSION_POLICY_EXAMPLE">lcncmkcnkcdbbanbjakcencbaoegdjlp;https://clients2.google.com/service/update2/crx</ph> installs the <ph name="EXTENSION_POLICY_EXAMPLE_EXTENSION_NAME">Google SSL Web Search</ph> extension from the standard Chrome Web Store update URL. For more information about hosting extensions, see: <ph name="LINK_TO_EXTENSION_DOC2">http://code.google.com/chrome/extensions/hosting.html</ph>.

If this policy is left not set the user can uninstall any extension in <ph name="PRODUCT_NAME">$1<ex>Google Chrome</ex></ph>.''',
