Chrome and pnacl

[Sheridan]

We have a web subscription to a site which is causing a right pain. It seems to use the Chrome pnacl component. When I check as an admin in chrome://components I can see it there and up to date as Version 0.57.44.2492, but when a non admin logs it it shows version 0.0.0.0

 

As we normally disable access to the chrome://components tab I've temporarily opened it, and the non admin user can click Update, and it then shows version 0.57.44.2492, the web site then works correctly

 

Surely a component is installed for all users of chrome browser? Or is there a way to forcibly install/update it?

Do you have the "Enable component updates ..." GPO disabled?

 

[Sheridan]

Yes that's enabled for all users in our Chrome policies.

 

It seems to be up to date, just the user's profile can't seem to see that it is.

just the user's profile can't seem to see that it is.

Which type of profiles do your non-admin users have (mandatory, roaming, local etc.)?

[Sheridan]

All local profiles here. If I copy the folders 'pnacl' and 'pnacltranslationcache' from a working users Appdata\Local to a non working users folder then it seems to work. But why it works/fails randomly is a bit odd.
