Jon,

I don't think I saw specific reference in your steps to checking the Hatch
Extension for Chrome. Did you make sure the Hatch Extension is installed
and enabled?

The Hatch Chrome Extension should get installed and enabled by the Hatch
Windows Installer. We have had a few instances, however, usually with
reinstalls, where the Hatch Extension did not get added to Chrome as part
of the installation, or was added, but left disabled.

Check your Chrome Extensions and make sure the Hatch Extension is enabled.
If you don't see the extension at all, you can get it from the Chrome Web
Store.

Here's a link to the extension in the Chrome Web Store:

https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/hatch-native-messenger/ppooibdipmklfichpmkcgplfgdplgahl


Chrome will likely need to be restarted after installing or enabling the
extension.
Hope this helps,

Michele
