I was embrassed when I could not find the app I installed from Chrome Web Store on my Chrome Extension List page.

     * on my Chrome Extension List page :  top right corner  - tools - extensions

For example, I installed "nGenx nFinity Browser" but I could not find it on my Chrome Extension List page.
And I could see "Rate It" for the app when I searched "ie tab" on the Chrome Web Store as below.

** In left column(categories),
     Business Tools ~ Utilities ; Apps
     Extensions
     Themes

================================================
There seem to be three categories on Chrome Web Store ; Apps, Extensions and Themes.

If what you installed on the Chrome Web Store were  apps, you can see them on  "New Tab" as below.
You can launch an app you want here and you can also delete or create shorcuts etc. as you want by right clicking of your mouse on it.

You can see "LAUNCH APP" when you selected the App.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
If what you installed on the Chrome Web Store were Chrome Extensions, you can see them on your  "Chrome Extensions list page.(eg.   top right corner  - tools - extensions)

You can enable,disable or delete them on the page.

You can see "ADDED TO CHROME" when you selected the Extension.



And you can see them on the upper right part of Chrome Browser.

(Extensions installed and enabled in my case)

How to install a theme

See if the Chrome Web Store is available in your location.

To install a theme from the Chrome Web Store, follow these steps:

1. Visit the Web Store at http://chrome.google.com/webstore. You can also reach it by clicking the  icon in the “Apps” section of the New Tab page.
2. Browse or search for the theme you’d like to install.
3. On the theme's details page, click the Add to Chrome button.

The theme will be applied immediately to the skin of your browser. If you change your mind, just click Undo in the message that appears at the top of page to go back to your previous theme.
