Chrome Options 1

(Google) Chrome Options / Preferences / Settings

(Google) Chrome = Chromium
(Google) Chrome Preferences file is just a text file that contains JSON markup.

Chrome Preferences file behavior:
  • When users start Google Chrome for the first time, they don't yet have a Preferences file.
  • A file named "master_preferences" located next to chrome.exe is used as a template for what becomes each user's Preferences file. On a Windows system with Chrome installed from an MSI, this will be C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\master_preferences.
  • You only need to create and populate the master_preferences file when you deploy Google Chrome. All users on a machine will get those master settings when they first start Google Chrome.
(Google) Chrome Preferences file:
  • file extension is JSON.
  • commonly file name is master_preferences.
  • policy always takes precedence.
(Google) Chrome policy / Chrome Management / Google Admin console can set by sign in online.

Chrome files support:
  • bookmarks = commonly file name is bookmarks.html
  • history = history 

Google Chrome Options List

Plugin Behavior
by going to chrome://plugins/ and clicking on the disable link under Adobe Flash Player.
go to Settings > Show advanced settings… > Privacy > Content settings > Plugins and select the radio button next to Let me choose when to run plugin content.

 Keyboard Shortcuts for Extensions
go to chrome://extensions
and click on the Keyboard Shortcuts link at the bottom right in Extensions. This brings up a dialog with a list of all your enabled extensions. 

Every time you change a setting in chrome://flags, you’ll have to relaunch Chrome for the new setting to take effect. We recommend restarting Chrome just once after you have tweaked all that you want to tweak.

chrome://flags options:
Automatic tab discarding
turn on  / Enable this flag to let Chrome monitor your tabs and discard the low priority background tabs automatically.


enable Show Autofill predictions.
Enable Show Saved Copy Button.
Choose Primary from the dropdown menu for this option and relaunch Chrome. Now when you try to load web pages without an Internet connection, for pages that you have visited before you’ll see a Show saved copy button in addition to the usual Unable to connect to the Internet message.
Here are a couple of things to note:
    You can choose Secondary from the Enable Show Saved Copy dropdown. The only difference this will make is that you’ll get an inconspicuous Show Saved Copy button instead of a bright blue one.
    If you have enabled Enable Offline Auto-Reload Mode and/or Only Auto-Reload Visible Tabs, you won’t see the Show Saved Copy button at all. The page will reload automatically to show you the cached copy.

Enable Download Resumption

Extension-Specific Settings

To explore them now, go to the Extensions page, look for the tiny Options link beneath any extension, and click on it.
