you need the parameter "/c"

string strCmdLine = 
 "/c C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe " +
 "--load-extension=\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\toolbar-GC\"";
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("CMD.exe", strCmdLine);
process1.Close();

You don't need to use cmd.exe mate...

I guess this should do the job for you... 

 string strCmdLine =
     "\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe \"";

            var parmaters = "google.com";
            System.Diagnostics.Process.Start(strCmdLine, parmaters);

You need to add a /C

Correct syntax for CMD.exe is

CMD.EXE /c command

string strCmdLine = 
     "/C C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\chrome.exe " +
     "--load-extension=\"C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Google\\Chrome\\Application\\toolbar-GC\"";

System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("CMD.exe", strCmdLine);
process1.Close();
