System-level Chrome should not store data in HKCU\Software\Google\Update\ClientState\...

Project Member Reported by grt@chromium.org, Jun 8 2016

Issue description

Rather, data should end up in HKLM\Software\Google\Update\ClientStateMedium\... under a key with per-user values. Rationale: it's difficult for uninstall to remove data from user hives.

We could have a period in which a system-level update would migrate per-user data from any user hives that can be loaded into HKLM.

I'd call this a "nice to have". Some values may need support from Google Update. There's nothing burning here, I simply filed it to keep it on the radar as something to strive for.

This is basically for dr and lastrun. There may be a few other stragglers, but I don't think they're critical. dr shouldn't move, since I recall it being decided that per-install dr is the righ thing. Lastrun I'm less sure about, but I don't think this is high enough impact to be worth pursuing.
