What version of Chrome? I'm using 36.0.1985.125 and it worked just fine.

When you restart, it would be disabled. There are two ways around the block. The first has been mentioned above - load unpacked extension.

The second is much more of a hassle and didn't work for me. It involves using group policy to whitelist the extension.

Ah ok, I had to kill all the background processes to really "restart" Chrome. Thanks.
