# Chrome Extension

The Deep Freeze Chrome Extension is an extension for the Chrome browser that enables the following Deep Freeze MDM features:

* Send messages to devices as an on-demand action.
* Collection of the following device data: OS version, memory stats, storage capacity, battery level, username of the current user, OU of the current user, whether the device is currently using work or home group, what group is currently applied to the device.

While individual users can install the Chrome extension, installation is best managed by an administrator using the Google Admin Console.

To deploy Chrome extension:

1. Go to *MDM > Settings*.
2. Click the Chromebook icon.
3. Click the *Chrome Extension* tab.
4. Log in to your [Google Admin Console](http://admin.google.com/) with your Super Admin credentials.
5. Navigate to *Device Management* in the [Google Admin Console](http://admin.google.com/).
6. Select *Chrome Management*, then *User Settings*.
7. Use the navigation pane at the left to select the OUs to which the extension should be installed.
8. Navigate to *Force-install App and Extensions* section and click the *Manage force-installed apps* link.
9. Under Chrome Web Store, search for *Deep Freeze MDM* and add the extension. Click *Save*.
10. Scroll to Incognito Mode and select *Disallow incognito mode* to prevent users from bypassing the extension. Click *Save*.
11. Navigate to *Device Management > Chrome > Device Settings*. Scroll to *Guest Mode* and select *Do not allow guest mode* to ensure the extension is always applied.

Once the Deep Freeze Chrome extension has been enforced to the appropriate OUs, you will be able to use all features of Chromebook MDM.
