![]() ![]() I have uninstalled and reinstalled the app several times, ditto for Chrome itself, and I have restarted both the browser and the OS. I sometimes want to run two versions of the app (one to talk to colleagues, the other to friends). I can't just launch it from Launchpad or pin it in the Dock, because I run Chrome as two different personas (work and home), and when I launch Hangouts like it's a normal OSX app, I can't control which profile it picks up. Is there another way to launch this app manually, on demand, from the browser itself? How can I add a button for it to my Chrome toolbar? The "flyup" extension adds a button to the Chrome toolbar to the right of the address (URL) field:īut so far as I can tell, the only way to launch the first version of the extension is to set it to "launch on startup" (which is unreliable, and interacts weirdly with Chrome crashes), or go Settings>Extensions>Google Hangouts (desktop)>Details>Launch App (from the Chrome Web Store): ![]() The problem I'm encountering is launching the "desktop application" app. I have both extensions installed, but I have the second one, with the conversations in separate non-standard "flyup" windows disabled, because I find them painful from a window-management and workflow perspective.

There are two Hangouts extensions in Chrome Web Store, produced by Google. ![]()
