The beta and the stable versions (32 or 64 bit) are not loading extensions via the registry anymore (since Chrome 35, I think). Only using enterprise policy, if you are in a domain.For more information, see the blog post -

As per the documentation at https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/external_extensions , on 64 bit machines, extensions can be fetched from chrome store by creating a registry entry under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Google\Chrome\Extensions
This works fine on 32 bit Chrome browser but the new 64 bit chrome browser is not respecting this registry area.I guess the 64 bit Chrome is looking in the 64 bit registry area but I think at some point existing 32 bit browsers will be forcibly upgraded to 64 bit version and so for backward compatibility reasons, Chrome should look for extensions in both 32 and 64 bit area otherwise EXISTING extensions registered for 32 bit browser will not be loaded by 64 bit browser after upgrade.
Browser: Chrome 64 bit (beta)Platform: Win 8.1
