Managing Chrome Extensions

The new Chrome extension manager is a gray, puzzle piece-shaped icon to the right of the address bar. Click on the puzzle piece and you will see a drop down menu for quick access to your extensions.

Here you will see all your extensions.

You will also have the option of pinning or unpinning your extensions so they either appear or not in the menu bar to the right of your address bar. 



And importantly, Chrome’s new extensions menu provides more information about exactly which extensions can access data on the current website. You can control whether an extension can access your data by clicking the menu button (the three dots) to the right of it and using the “This can read and change site data” option. This provides easier access to controlling a Chrome extension permissions.
