I want to create a shortcut that will direct me to chrome://bookmarks
Simply creating a desktop URL shortcut results in a problem with the shortcut, as it seems to only recognize the http scheme.
I've tried a simple batch command:
start chrome chrome://bookmarks
But this will open a new window without taking me to the URL.

I would like to replace a javascript file in my Google Chrome cache such that when I reload a website it will run my modified script. I could do a whole setup with puppeteer instead but it would be just way easier if I could just replace the cached file. However, I cannot seem to locate my cache or any info on wether this is possible since the data might be encrypted or encoded. Alternatively is there an extension that would let me do this?
You can replace a JavaScript file in your Google Chrome cache by following these steps:
Open Chrome and press F12 to open the developer tools.
Go to the "Application" tab in the developer tools and select "Cache" from the left sidebar.
Find the JavaScript file you want to replace in the cache and select it.
Right-click on the selected file and choose "Delete" to remove it from the cache.
Refresh the website to reload it and run your modified script.
To run the modified script, you can use the "Sources" tab in the developer tools to open the file and paste in your changes.
I use a script to open my browser and a bunch of tabs, for when I accidentally close the browser, with a small window still open in the background (SPAM windows, etc.). The problem is, with Google Chrome set to continue where I left off, when I restart the computer, or Google Chrome, I just get a single windows open with the tab, not my pinned tabs, and tab groups.
Is there a way to create a tab group from the command line?
I have tried a few ways of doing this, but the scripting I can find, will only open the tab in the browser, not actually allow me to create a tab group.
I have tried using:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" google.com mysite.com
This will load the pages as tabs, but I cannot create a tab group.
I have tried Python
python -m webbrowser google.com mysite.com
I cannot see anyway to create a tab group.
I, using a Chrome browser, am troubleshooting a node.js web application on a page generated by Jade.
Most of the script files included in the Jade file appear in the Sources tab in Chrome F12, ie under the tree beginning with Top. However, there is one particular script file that I see has been loaded under the Network tab (Chrome F12) but does not appear in the Sources tab. As a result I am unable to put breakpoints in that script.
That script file was included with a simple append to a block. But in the Network tab, it was shown called with a query string parameter of a long number, eg emoji.js?123232323.
What could be happening and how do I fix it?
I tried using very simple HTML to create several links to several batch files on my server that are intended to run when users click on the links. Using Chrome, every time I click on one of those files my browser displays the script itself (even though its a .bat) and doesn't actually run the script. Internet Explorer runs it every time, however all the users on the network use Chrome for web browsing.
Is there any way to force Chrome (preferably through HTML or VB or some other scripting on the page itself rather than change all of the users' browser settings) to run these batch files when the user clicks on the link?
The answers given so far - that it's "not possible" - are incorrect or outdated. Using Chrome Apps you can call executables (called "hosts") if they are registered with Chrome. Of course a Chrome App is a client application so you need to distribute it.
See https://developer.chrome.com/extensions/nativeMessaging#examples
HTML, JS on browser cannot run shell command, command line. You have to implement server script to execute your bat file then call it from HTML, JS via Ajax or direct link.

Opens just fine in IE... why not in FF or Chrome? Is there a work-around?
This issue is caused by default security settings in Chrome and Firefox.
In order to have Chrome automatically open a *.mdb file after being downloaded, perform the following steps:
1) First time, tell the browser that you want to keep the file
2) Tell the browser that you want to open the file automatically from now on
3) After step #2, you will notice in your Chrome settings a new button to "Clear auto-opening settings"
4) Associate the file extension with Microsoft Access program
