windows - How do I disable Google Chrome silent updates?

I've done the instructions that I found online and Chrome is still automatically updating itself.


I've downloaded and installed the ADM template so I can use Local Policy to disable updates. I've set it to manual updates only. I've also added keys to the registry at HKLM/SOFTWARE/Policies/Google/Update


Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Update]
"UpdateDefault"=dword:00000000
"AutoUpdateCheckPeriodMinutes"=dword:00000000
"DisableAutoUpdateChecksCheckboxValue"=dword:00000000
"Update{8A69D345-D564-463C-AFF1-A69D9E530F96}"=dword:00000000
"Install{8A69D345-D564-463C-AFF1-A69D9E530F96}"=dword:00000000

Google Update Services are both disabled. (gupdate and gupdatem)
