Default Chrome Apps are no longer showing up on NTR Apps Page #207

For the past week I am only able to see the apps that I myself installed on Chrome. "Apps" like Youtube, Gmail, Drive, etc., are all missing.

Ok I found what is causing this.

In chome://flags, I disabled the following flags, and I am now able to see all of the Google Apps (I guess YouTube is considered a non-G Suite app, according to the flags):

chrome://flags/#enable-migrate-default-chrome-app-to-web-apps-non-gsuite chrome://flags/#enable-migrate-default-chrome-app-to-web-apps-gsuite

It looks like Google is making it so that these apps are no longer in Chrome Web Store and won't be returned by chrome.management.getAll() without disabling those flags, which of course is only temporary until the flag is eventually removed.
