Chrome not updating

Reported by t...@anoebis.be, Jul 27 2016

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0; WOW64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/51.0.2704.103 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce the problem:
Machine-installations of Chrome is not updating fast enough. Please look at  issue 606301  and read all the comments after May 12th...

What is the expected behavior?

What went wrong?
I still have version 51.0.2704.103 on my computer, which was released 40 days ago. After that, version 51.0.2704.106 was released (33 days ago), and 52.0.2743.82 too (6 days ago)... 

I understand that (and why) updates are rolled out gradually, but I believe that in a few days everyone should be updated to the latest version.

Did this work before? N/A 

Chrome version: 51.0.2704.103  Channel: stable
OS Version: 10.0
Flash Version: Shockwave Flash 22.0 r0

We stay on stable-version 51.0.2704.103. OS Version 7x64
We found out, when we delete the regkeys under
HKLM\Software\wow6432node\google\update\clientstate ... and
HKLM\Software\wow6432node\google\update\clientstatemedium
that then after a few hours within 1 Day automatically the update to 52.0.2743.82 was installed.
But this is surely not the right way for an automatically Update.

I have the same issue with the same version on Win7 x64.  I created the GoogleUpdate.ini file to enable logging and every time the machine checks in, it is told "noupdate".  Log entries & other relevant info here:

Here, a Chromium tech suggest that updating to .106 is not happening because of "internal deployment decisions", and that the clients will update in time.  I believe that since v52 is out now, and includes an important security fix, that this should probably be auto-updating now.

Most of our clients are now running 52.0.2743.116.  It took about 3 weeks for Google Update to update most of our clients from a version that had "high risk" security flaws to one that didn't.  We will be investigating alternate patching/deployment methods for Chrome within our organization.

On my PC it's still version 53.0.2785.116. I don't know what kind of delay is used to release version .143, but I didn't receive it yet.

I am currently on 54.0.2840.71 (released 20 days ago). A stable version was released 8 days ago (54.0.2840.87), and earlier today (54.0.2840.99). Why am I still on the version from 3 weeks ago??  I think I'm not the only one who wants an explanation about these "internal deployment decisions"!
