1. Download policy_templates.zip from link above
2. Extract the file
3. For Server 2012 R2 you will use the chrome.adm found at C:\“Extracted folder” \windows\adm\en-US
4. To install

• Navigate to Start > Run: gpedit.msc.
• Navigate to Local Computer Policy > Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates.
• Right-click Administrative Templates, and select Add/Remove Templates.
• Add the chrome.adm template via the dialog.

Once complete, a Google / Google Chrome folder will appear under Administrative Templates if it's not already there. If you added the ADM template on Windows 7 or Server 2012 R2, it will appear under Local Computer Policy, Computer Configuration, Administrative Templates, Classic Administrative Templates / Google / Google Chrome.

Two common features to disable are Use hardware acceleration when available and Continue running background apps when Google Chrome is close.
