Chrome 127 (expected July 17th 2024) will probably disable manifest v2 extensions soon: https://developer.chrome.com/blog/resuming-the-transition-to-mv3
Before that date a manifest v3 version of the BPC-extension will be released for testing.

Pre-release Chrome version may block manifest v2 extensions sooner (June 2024): https://chromestatus.com/roadmap

By setting the ExtensionManifestV2Availability policy you can postphone this for a year though: https://chromeenterprise.google/policies/#ExtensionManifestV2Availability

Example ExtensionManifestV2Availability.reg file for Chrome main release:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Google\Chrome]
"ExtensionManifestV2Availability"=dword:00000002
