There is not possibility to download it from Google store.
Does it mean the single way to do it manually?

@antonin-lebrard Thank you! But it is still not clear how to update automatically.

@hardhub Unfortunatly I didn't find any way to auto update each extensions.
But in my experience it is actually a very good thing, as extensions may change of owner without notice or the owner might be malicious, and profit of autoupdate behavior of chrome to update its extensions with crypto-miner, adware, malware, anti-privacy features etc...

I prefer to search for the code source of each extensions I wish to install/update.
It might be cumbersome, but I don't see better way to manage this automaticaly
