I'd used source code from PWA Builder to pack an APK file for my PWA application. When a user install it, it shows "Running in Chrome" with an "OK" button. It keep showing until user click "OK" button themselves. The same happens with Google Maps PWA. Is there anyway to remove that? This is really necessary because it affects the user experience. I've attached a screenshot for reference. One is with status "Running in Chrome", the other one when "OK" is tapped. Kindly ignore the other content.
Thank you.

I want to know how to disable the "Restore Tabs Popup" which appears when Google Chrome is opened after being ended abruptly?
This is creating an issue in my Automation Process. I want to run specific chrome Profiles and change the chrome Profiles each hour automatically . I have created scripts and automated opening and closing of Chrome profiles using task scheduler. But this popup is becoming big Hurdle for meenter image description here!
Each time It needs to be cancelled manually! Any solution please?
I have shown screenshot here.
I have tried ways that were available on Google. Like finding "Exit_type" in preferences file in Chrome folder or going to Chrome Flags in experiment section of Chrome but this doesn't helped!
I am trying to add the "add to Homescreen" prompt function to my website. Now I've read the google developer articles and I have everything set up.
Now, If I try to manually add my page to the homescreen with the button "Add to homecreen" in the Chrome devtools > Application > Manifest , nothing is happening. A few times the console showed an error, but after fixing it nothing happens. I don't get the Add to shelf banner, but I don't get an error displayed in the console. Lighthouse doesn't show any error either. In fact, lighthouse shows a score of 92 in pwa.
Is this now meaning that everything is working? Is there an other debug function I've overseen?
Edit: If I press the button and than reload the page, after I press reload and the page is acctually loaded, the console displays:
Site cannot be installed: the page has requested the banner prompt be cancelled
I was having this same issue: Chrome Dev Tools Add to Homescreen was not working on ANY PWA. After days struggling trying to figure out where the problem was I finally found that Chrome main menu has an option to install the app, and that option is working fine. So you don't need to use Chrome Dev Tools option.
If you are testing in localhost, try http://localhost instead of 127.0.0.1.
I don't know why, but I have the same issue when using 127.0.0.1.
After changing to localhost, it works correctly.
When I start any browser, the browser automatically load the web page given bellow,
http://www.nuesearch.com/?type=sc&ts=1467177363&z=dc4cb6fed564c32bd292b57gdz7q7mbg6m1mfzbgfg&from=eve0629&uid=WDCXWD10EZEX-00BN5A0_WD-WMC3F302817528175
I am running windows 7.
How can I fix the problem.
I already check the installed programs and extensions of browsers.
In each browser you can configure the start page
Chrome
Hamburger Menu -> parameters -> Startup section can configure start page
Edge
... Menu -> Parameter -> Open with section can configure start page
But generally this start page is provide by a malware. I supect you install a malware without want it
Good question, Md. Shougat Hossain. At the bottom of the browser is a link called "uninstall". Click it and it will send you to webpage, letting you uninstall from Google Chrome or Firefox. Here are the steps for uninstalling from Chrome.
1.Open Chrome explore.
2.Click “Customize and control Google Chrome” in the right-top of the page and click "Setting".
3.Click “Set pages” link of "On startup" ->delete Nuesearch homepage link ->click “OK”.
4.Click "Change" link of "Apperance" ->delete Nuesearch homepage link ->click "OK".
5.Restart Chrome explore.
Restart your computer after completing all the above steps.
I have a Macbook Pro with OS X 10.7.4. Recently i installed Aptana Studio 3 from the Aptana website. When i tried to run my HTML code with chrome, i did not find any option. No option for Opera either. There is only one option for firefox. Someone please tell me how should i run them ?
You need to add Chrome Web Browser manually:
Open the 'Run' (the green arrow one) Button and choose 'Run configurations..' from menu.
Click on the 'Web Browser' list item
Click the 'New Launch configuration' button
Browse for Chrome's executable: 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe'
Name your new config, i called it 'Chrome', clever isnt it?
Click the 'Apply' button to save changes.
You should now see Chrome on the Run menu.

I need to run a web-based app inside Chrome but it must appear as if the app is standalone. I dont want any tools or frames to be visible.
Yes I know I can press F11 but this isnt sufficient as I dont want the tools to appear when I move the mouse to the top of the screen.
Do I need to go to the extents of making a Chrome extension and utilizing a possible fullscreen feature?
From the linux man page:
--app=URL
Runs URL in "app mode": with no browser toolbars.
e.g. invoke it with google-chrome --app=http://example.com
Start Chrome with the --kiosk flag. Then, no borders etc. will be shown. Furthermore, pressing F11 will not exit this mode, so it's the most effective way of running a Kiosk-like app.
chromium --kiosk http://example.com/
Replace chromium with the path of your actual Chrome executable (e.g. chrome.exe).
In the new Chrome (v88) it might be required to add --user-data-dir parameter to remove the title bar, so the line would go like this:
chrome.exe --user-data-dir=c:\temp --kiosk http://google.com
If you open Chrome in app mode, like Trever suggests, then borders will still be visible.
If you want a windowed app with no menus on mac, the steps have changed since #PaulR responded.
The new steps are as follows:
navigate to
chrome://flags
Enable the following two options:
"The new bookmark app system"
"Allow hosted apps to be opened in windows"
Restart Chrome to enable the options.
Then navigate to the page you want to turn into an "app".
In the tools menu (three dots) click More Tools > Add to Applications
Finally, navigate to
chrome://apps
and right click on the icon for the newly added Application. Enable the "Open as window" option.
Go ahead and create the shortcut, then open Chrome Apps chrome://apps. The shortcut icon should be in there. Right click on the app icon and check "Open as window." After that, the shortcut will open as a window.

You can create create shortcuts from Chrome itself....
https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95710?hl=en-GB
^ this link no longer works.
The feature is called "Create application shortcuts". To enable it in newer versions of Chrome, go to:
chrome://flags/
... using the address bar. Then find "The new bookmark app system" and Disable it. Then click Relaunch Now at the bottom of the screen.
Now, in the "More tools" menu there will be the "Create application shortcuts" menu entry.
There may be another way to do this, but this is just clarifying the method that was supposed to be described in the link.
Like many others have said, --app=<url> should do it for Chrome Version: 83.0.4103.61. The --kiosk option opens a chrome tab, not a borderless "app" window. I'm on macOS Catalina and decided to brew cast install chromium and ran:
chromium --app=https://netflix.com
Unfortunately I could not stream Netflix from Chromium..
