Looking to completely disable the pop-up blocker for our enterprise deployment, preferably by using the master_preferences file. Oddly enough a google search didn't really provide many results other than an old post from 09 stating you can add a switch to the end of the target path in the shortcut. Thanks!

Sounds like the DefaultPopupsSetting policy is what you're looking for. Have a look at http://www.chromium.org/administrators/policy-list-3#DefaultPopupsSetting.

Thanks man. ...so if I understand correctly, these keys can be placed in either HKLM or HKCU?

"Policy settings can be stored in the registry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE or HKEY_CURRENT_USER in the following paths:
  • Google Chrome: Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\
  • Chromium: Software\Policies\Chromium\"

The supported way to install policies for Chrome is through the GPO editor. Placing policies directly in the registry may work but is not supported and will be removed soon.

The administrative templates with Chrome policy are available at http://support.google.com/chrome/a/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=187945.
