I have installed JsonPath Finder extension from Chrome webstore but when I tried to use it, the extension is grayout.I installed a different json path extenstion from web store and this extension behaved exactly the same as first one. I deleted those extensions and reinstalled but same result. I checked in the setting and all extensions are enabled. I have a win 10 pc with chrome ver 96.0.4664. Please let me know how to install jsonPath finder extensions from webstore and use it.All other extenisons I installed from Web store is working without any problem.

ChromeDriver is working on my system even though I don't have Chrome or Chromium installed. Based on the name, I thought it was like a "car driver" where you still need a car to get going. Or maybe like a product's API where you still need the product for your API calls to accomplish something.
Edit: Whoops, Chromium is installed after all.
Of course ChromeDriver requires Chrome or Chromium.
As per ChromeDriver - WebDriver for Chrome ChromeDriver is a separate executable that WebDriver uses to control Chrome.
Now, as per Requirements - ChromeDriver the server expects you to have Chrome installed in the default location for each system as follows:
1For Linux systems, the ChromeDriver expects /usr/bin/google-chrome to be a symlink to the actual Chrome binary.
You can also force ChromeDriver to use a custom location by setting a special capability. You can find the documentation in Using a Chrome executable in a non-standard location
I developed a chrome extension to solve a specific problem. I'm going to distribute it. But I dont want to my user down a chrome then install a extension and change chrome setting in order to unforbid my extension.
I'd like to pack the whole thing into one installation execution. Users just need to download the installation program, install it, then they get a special chrome with my extension on it. Everything is done.
How can I do this?
I'm developing on an offline machine and I need to install the IDE chrome extention. Since my machine has no internet connection, I can't get to the chrome app store.
I've searched my online webstorm install for the jb.rcx file but it doesn't exist. Is there a way to install this manually offline?
no:( you can only download it from Chrome WebStore - there is no other way to install the extension.
Google Chrome on my machine recently got updated to v44.
I'm working with Selenium WebDriver on Chrome and as soon as I updated Chrome, all my tests went dead. I use Chromedriver v2.16. My partner's PC has Chrome v42.0.2311.90 and Chromedriver v2.16. And tests run fine on his machine. Now, based on this I'm pretty sure the problem is probably not with Chromedriver.
So, how can I downgrade to Chrome 42.0.2311.90?
I've tried using an offline installer from here:
Google Chrome Alternate Offline Installer
But this always gives me the latest version to install i.e. v44.
The release that I need can be found here:
Google Chrome v42.0.2311.90 Stable Channel Update
Uninstall your current chrome version.
Remove all Chrome data for current version from: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome
Download your particular version from chrome_installer.
Disable chrome updates using instructions given on this link.
Following steps help you to install your desired google chrome version :
1 - Uninstall your current google chrome version.
2 - Download your desired google chrome version from here : Google Chrome Download
3 - Restart PC once so if any registry or temp file stored of previous google chrome then it will get refresh.
4 - Install your downloaded google chrome. And then turn off automatic chrome update.
I struggled with this same problem on Mac, trying to downgrade, and stay downgraded from Chrome 53 to 52 due to a serious bug affecting webaudio.
None of the other recommendation appear to apply any more (or on Mac OS X at least). The app attempts to upgrade itself and there doesn't be a way to configure that in a "Chrome-friendly" way.
Eventually I resorted to force...
Close and uninstall Chrome
Edit your /etc/hosts file to prevent update checks from working by overriding the DNS entry:
0.0.0.0 tools.google.com
Find and download an old release. This is left as an exercise, this was actually hard and fraught with fear of bad binaries. I was able to cross-reference MD5s from one site that didn't have downloads with another that had downloads.
Install and run the older version
Important: Check the "About" page, and point and laugh at Chrome's attempts to check in.
This is how you can use an older chrome version "in general":
Uninstall your current chrome
Install the chrome version you desire
DO NOT open chrome!! after installation
Instead disable auto-updates like here or here
Only then may you work with your desired chrome browser version
As for how to get a specific older version:
You need to google, search forums or try sites like this. It's just "grunt work" to find the version you are looking for. If you're extremely unlucky, the very version you need might even not be around any more.
If you are running on a windows machine you can leverage the package manager chocolatey, this is how we I'm doing it from Jenkins, we call a powershell that uninstalls a previous version and install a specific one: From a powershell ide script window, you need to have installed the modules for chocolatey that is a small price to pay for a lot of benefit:
choco install googlechrome --version 62.0.3202.94 -y
Then to prevent Chrome to self update I am performing this steps:
1. Verify Chrome's current version.
(Get-Item (Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\chrome.exe').'(Default)').VersionInfo
Install the version I'm aiming for:
choco install googlechrome --version 62.0.3202.94 -y
You can look for available versions here:
https://chocolatey.org/packages/GoogleChrome
(Find Version History Section)
Kill GoogleCrashHandler.exe in any of its variants 32 or 64 bits or both.
Delete the Directories
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Update and
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\CrashReporter
You will loose the ability to auto update (which is the whole purpose right) and
you will loose the ability to send crash reports and piggy back on that executable to update against your will whenever google deems convenient.

I just bought a Samsung gear 2 neo and wanted to create my own watch. So this means I am new to Tizen development.
I installed the Tizen IDE and the SDK but for some reason after following -a part- this tutorial (http://www.slideshare.net/badaindonesia/professional-tizen-application-development) Tizen won't run my projects because it can't find Google Chrome on the specified location. This problem occures when I try to run a Tizen web application as a Tizen web simulator app. When i try to launch it as a Tizen web app it says Could not find emulator or device but that isn't my current target.
The specific message is Google Chrome could not be found (C:\Program Files(x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\Chrome.exe). Please install Google Chrome and specify the Google Chrome program location in Window->Preferences under "Tizen SDK/Web/Simulator".
I have tried changing the location to C:\Program Files(x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\ But this wouldn't help either. Yes, i have entered the correct location since i have manually located the chrome.exe to.
The only thing which might be wrong is that I am using the Windows 7 64 bit installer while I am on a Windows 8 64 bit desktop pc.
I have experienced a similar bug. Maybe this will help you/future developers:
My problem was that the Chrome app wouldn't open while pressing debug. I subsequently tried it with the Visual Studio Tizen extension: same problem.
The fix: I dove into the extension code and found that changing the chrome path via the option "Change Chrome path" doesn't actually change your chrome path.
What does? Going into "C:\Users\[USERNAME]\.vscode\extensions\tizenweb.wappl-1.1.2\lib\constants.js" and changing Constants.CHROME_PATH to your chrome path (for the operating system you are using).
I have not found a solution for the Tizen app, though I would recommend using the VScode extension anyway.
I had the same problem. Though not exactly a solution, I found a workaround.
Start the Web Simulator from Start Menu
Enter the location of your index.html file in the address field and press Enter
Don't forget to add file:/// in the front.
There you go!!
