Chrome 149 Default Search Extension Prompt

[Eddy DosSantos]

Hi Everyone, 

I’ve heard that some users of Chrome 149 Beta are seeing a new and more aggressive version of the user prompt messaging when enabling an extension that changes the default search engine, which may increase the churn rate back to Google.

I could not confirm any related changes in the Chrome 149 release logs. Could you please confirm whether any updates to the default search override UX were introduced in Chrome 149?

If so, would this also affect users who already had the extension installed prior to the update?

Many Thanks--
