Thank you, Finnur, but removing registry key doesn’t remove extension
info (including state=2) from Preferences file.
Step by step:
1.      Add this reg to the registry:
__________________________________________________
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Google\Chrome\Extensions
\aagbnokmnbhigpnpbjpaplncekccjbkb]"
"path" = "C:\\extensions_chrome\\MyExtension\\ MyExtension.crx"
"version" = "1.1.1"
__________________________________________________

2.      Start Chrome. MyExtension appears.
3.      Go to chrome://extensions/ and remove MyExtension. Close Chrome.
4.      Delete aagbnokmnbhigpnpbjpaplncekccjbkb under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
\Software\Google\Chrome\Extensions

5.      Restart Chrome.

Now info about MyExtension is still present in Preferences file under
“extensions” -> “settings” -> “aagbnokmnbhigpnpbjpaplncekccjbkb”. How
do I remove this info?
