Google (via Chrome) is somehow caching anyone that logged in with a Gmail account and associating it with my Chrome Browser. Pictures and logins are now displayed in Chrome by going to:
Settings->"Web Browsing with Google Smarts"
There is no obvious way to delete the data displayed here and disable this feature. Does anyone have any ideas?
I'm using MacOS with Chrome v 68.0.3440.106
Update:
Go to: chrome://flags/#account-consistency , which is:
Identity consistency between browser and cookie jar
When enabled, the browser manages signing in and out of Google accounts. – Mac, Windows, Linux, Chrome OS, Android
Disable that.

I have written a simple Chrome extension and tested it using developer mode to load the unpacked extension. It works as expected this way.
Because the extension uses storage.sync API, I would like to undertake further testing with installations of the extension as published in the Chrome Web Store.
The Developer Dashboard for Chrome Web Store provides an option to publish to trusted users only:
Only trusted testers from your developer dashboard can see it.
You can also include members of a Google Group that you own or manage.
When I publish this way the trusted testers listed for my dashboard can reach the extension and install it from the Chrome Web Store. However, the extension is always disabled upon starting Chrome:
This extension is not listed in the Chrome Web Store and may have been added without your knowledge. Learn more
We, my testers and I, have not been able to find any way to enable an extension disabled by Chrome. Is there one? If not, the entire exercise of an "unlisted" publication mode for testing seems pointless.
The only work around I've found to this situation so far is to set the extension to "unlisted" rather than "published to testers" from the Chrome developer dashboard.
This is not at all satisfying, but did allow some real world testing in an unobtrusive way.
Google Chrome Sync Settings shows 'Sync is disabled by your administrator.'
I'm using my company's laptop and I'd like to sync my content to my Google Account with which I have already logged into Google Chrome.
Not able to turn Sync ON.
Thanks!
You'll need to talk to your company's IT department, as they have deliberately disabled Chrome Sync.
Alternatively, so far it is possible to use the browser Iron Portable, that can sync with Chrome (it is a Chrome-like browser), and apparently ignores these user policy settings, as it is able to sync all data correctly.
How do I completely remove all data about a single domain in Google Chrome? (in one action)
Use case:
I am developing an offline web application, and frequently need to 'start fresh' while testing
Chrome's "Clear browsing data" can only be limited to time, not domains
Removing a domain's pages in history does not remove service workers
App Cache doesn't work properly in Chrome's Incognito mode
Ideally, a UI button or keyboard shortcut would be best. Extensions are fine, if they work.
Please don't submit answer unless service workers are also removed (I know there are many solutions for cookies/cache etc).
thanks
Chrome now includes a 'Clear storage' function in the 'Application' tab of dev tools (using v52). Thanks Chrome!
My cloud application is programmed already.
Which gets loaded using https://example.com to Google Chrome, then Google Chrome is accessing to the local machine as https://192.168.1.27/
but for security Google Chrome fails because the certificates are self-certified inside the embedded box of 192.168.1.27 (which i cant change).
But i trust it my lan and this device 100%. How can i instruct Google Chrome to avoid this and allow straight access?
You cant as of Google Chrome stable version (13 May 2015)
Ask Chrome Team to fix it. Its not logical and should be treated as BUG. When a programmer trust his lan and his own robots. There is no logic involved Google chrome should still un-trust it (so Chrome Team should brain storm it and add the feature).
I want to run multiple Google Chrome application windows logged into the same web site (Twitter.com, say), each with different credentials. Is this possible? If so, how?
My initial testing shows that multiple Chrome app windows are not sufficiently isolated to do this. Logging into the second account logs me into the second account in both windows, suggesting that they are sharing information just as two Chrome tabs might.
You can use a Chrome "Incognito" window for this.
As you've found, Chrome windows are (like in most browsers) just groupings for tabs, not an authentication barrier.
look for a plugin called "swap my cookies"
You can't do that with chrome Incognito windows.
Take a look here: http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=24690.
So that's right you can create only two isolated session: one incognito and one normal.
See the latest post:
Although it's an extension / plug-in and not in core Chromium, MultiLogin has been working quite well for me: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/nccllfnllopfpcbjdgjdlfmomnfgnnbk
It can open new tabs, each with their own cookie jar.
