[SOLVED] A way to fix battlelog web plugins

For me, there was an issue when i was installing the latest plugin for chrome. It simply didn't install. Now when EA told me the usual list to fix it, and it didn't, i contacted a friend in EA and things led to things and i realized that it was a computer admin issue. For example, launch your chrome with admin privileges and re-download the plugin. This works right? However, that only works on admin chrome. Pull up the administrator version of chrome and the normal version. In both of them, type chrome://plugins . If you see that on the one that's running as admin there's a battlelog web plugin on it and on the normal one there isn't, then there's a fix out there. Here is what you do:

1. Open up your windows explorer.
2. Go to this folder: C:\Program Files (x86)\Battlelog Web Plugins\ (c:\ isn't fixed, for instance if you have a d:\ drive, you will type that.)
3. Go to the latest plugin version folder. (Example: 2.7.0)
4. In there you should find a file called ChromeHelper
5. Launch that file and press OK. (This will restart your Chrome)
6. Relaunch chrome and if it works, perfect. If not, you don't have this issue

Hope this helped anyone that needed it!

    I recommend for you to do this process:
    1. Uninstall Plugin, then reinstall. If this doesn't work try this:

    1. Uninstall plugin.
    2. Clear browsing history off of normal user and your administrator windows account.
    3. Go into your administrator account
    4. Perform a clean boot. https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/929135
    5. When computer restarts, log into your administrator, open chrome without origin, only have chrome open, sign in though battlelog
    6. Install the plugin
    7. Launch battlelog through origin.

    If this fixes the issue, good, if not, proceed with the original solution. If that doesn't help, I can't help you, this isn't a plugin issue, it is Google Chrome's latest patch. If that didn't work, try upgrading chrome, and repeating steps.

    Cant put it to work!

    First, medal of Honor doesnt work on Win8.1 - multiplayer only pff.

    Now BF4 will not launch because EA didnt use a regular way to launch games and focused it all on a web browser? WTF?

    How am I to buy new stuff on origin this way?

  • There is another solution that I have used, go to chrome://flags and enable NPAPI. This should fix things.

    This solution works on Win7 Win8 Win8.1 and Win10
