I want to know where the cached information stored from url: chrome://cache in chrome browser.
where can I get it?
Link cache in chrome
you can find your Chrome temporary files:
Windows:
Windows Vista: C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\
Windows XP: C:\Documents and Settings[USERNAME]\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\
Windows 7/8: C:\Users[USERNAME]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache
Mac OS X:
Open finder, hit Command+Shift+G, and type in /Users/[USERNAME]/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/
and you can download chrome cash viewer from here
In addition to #wael-mohamed's answer,
in mac
goto
$ cd /Users/{user}/Library/Caches/Google
replace the {search-text} below with what you are searching
$ grep -r "{search-text}" Chrome

I've read about the Chrome Headless from developers.google said we can run the Google without UI. Quote from that link :
Headless Chrome is shipping in Chrome 59. It's a way to run the Chrome
browser in a headless environment. Essentially, running Chrome without
chrome! It brings all modern web platform features provided by
Chromium and the Blink rendering engine to the command line.
Why is that useful?
A headless browser is a great tool for automated testing and server
environments where you don't need a visible UI shell. For example, you
may want to run some tests against a real web page, create a PDF of
it, or just inspect how the browser renders an URL.
This is really great feature, so I do some experiment with this cool feature. The idea is to taking snapshot as the document site by do call of chrome.exe from Windows Command Prompt, as follow :
chrome --headless --disable-gpu --screenshot https://www.chromestatus.com/
After do several times and following the instruction from these site. I got nothing. I don't get any picture or screenshot with name screenshot.png as document mention it before Running with --screenshot will produce a file named screenshot.png in the current working directory.
From this document also said about version,
Caution: Headless mode is available on Mac and Linux in Chrome 59.
Windows support is coming in Chrome 60. To check what version of
Chrome you have, open chrome://version.
after do some check with suggested before, I run chrome://version on my Chrome on Windows x64 Machine and got some result :
Google Chrome 62.0.3202.94 (Official Build) (64-bit) (cohort: Stable)
Revision 4fd852a98d66564c88736c017b0a0b0478e885ad-refs/branch-heads/3202#{#789}
What wrong? What i missed?
Thanks
After do some experiments. for --screenshot will save the image on the same level as chrome.exe location and that will be mean save on Program Files.
So we need need to combine parameter names and arguments with a =
--screenshot="D:\screen.png" will work, otherwise Chrome writes to it's installation folder. Big design flaw, no software should use it's installation folder as a working directory.
Here are the complete argument :
chrome --headless --enable-logging --disable-gpu --screenshot="D:\screen.png" "https://www.chromestatus.com/"
I am attempting to send command-line arguments to Chrome in order to disable CORS support and allow local file access. For some reason it works under Mac OS X and not Windows. I am attempting the following commands:
C:\>cd "Program Files (x86)"\google\chrome\application
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application>chrome --args --allow-file-access-from-files --disable-web-security
I am also attempting the same command without the --args flag.
I had to use:
.\chrome.exe
Windows was looking in my system PATH for the binary and this messed up the parameter passing.
when running ubuntu cli in a tab (a chrome tab in chrome os) using crouton, i can't press control w to search in the nano text editor. It triggers the close window command instead for chrome. How can I disable this? With a GUI installed for Ubuntu, I can run the program full screen and get total keyboard command capture. Is this impossible when running in a Chrome tab? Is there any way to get the cli out of the chrome tab?
Chrome OS Download 'Crouton integration Extension' from Google Store
Chrome OS Download crouton from bottom link of Francois Beaufort
Chrome OS Open CROSH ...type crt + alt + t
Chrome OS type shell
Chrome OS type: sudo sh ~/Downloads/crouton -r trusty -t unity,extension
Chrome OS type: sudo startunity

I am making an application and I want to make it installable on the user's desktops using chrome URL shortcut. Therefore, is there a universal path to the chrome.exe that can launch my app on all Windows versions ( XP, Seven and vista )
Chrome installs by default to the User's AppData Local folder:
XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome
Vista:
C:\Users\UserName\AppDataLocal\Google\Chrome
Windows 7:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Application
Win 7/8/10/11, (either):
- C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application
- C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application
Best bet is to use some OS detection code, then use an environment variable to detect the User's AppData folder (i.e. %LOCALAPPDATA%) or the ProgramFiles folder, and then append the difference in OS's to the end of the variable.
You can look in the Registry:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\chrome.exe
The registry option might be the best, but the one suggested in the other answer didn't exist in my computer (Windows 10 64-bit). I think the "Uninstall" key might be more robust. If it didn't exist, users would have a hard time uninstalling Chrome. The following keys give you the install location, you'll need to append "\chrome.exe" to get the full path to the executable:
Chrome:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Google Chrome\InstallLocation
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Google Chrome\InstallLocation
Chrome Canary:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Google Chrome SxS\InstallLocation
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Uninstall\Google Chrome SxS\InstallLocation
Win 7 32 bit:
c:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
Win 7 64 bit (or W10 64b):
c:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe
(which is different from the preceding answers and comments).
Clay Nichols suggestion to look in the registry is of course recommended.
Please do not edit!
Someone "edited" this answer saying 32 bit paths are always (x86), showing a total misunderstanding of the question and the answer! The path c:\Program Files (x86)\ does not even exist on a 32 bit machine (unless you manually add it youself); both of the above are tested answers.
For Windows users chrome.exe could have been be installed in several places based on the user's Window's edition (64 or 32-bit) and when the user installed Chrome it:
Current Locations
It'll most likely be in either:
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application
For 32-bit Chrome
Or 64-bit edition if you *installed Chrome before 2020. See: Windows Chrome 64-bit prepared to install into Program Files
C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application
for Chrome 64-bit edition *(the default install location since 2020)
C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application
For 32 bit Chrome on Windows 32-bit (Program Files (x86) is used only on windows 64-bit to denote 32-bit applications)
*Much confusion is caused by the fact that Chrome has been 64 bit since 2014, but Google still used Program Files (x86) until 2020 as the install location. And if you installed Chrome before 2020 then it will continue to live in the Program Files (x86) directory:
Browsers installed under "C:\Program Files (x86)" remain in that
directory and will continue to be updated. They must be uninstalled
first to be reinstalled under "C:\Program Files".
Legacy Locations
Chrome used to install to the user folder for Vista and XP:
XP:
C:\Documents and Settings\UserName\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome
Vista:
C:\Users\UserName\AppDataLocal\Google\Chrome
I had a .mht file that I would like to open in chrome, and found that just running:
chrome.exe "path-to-file.mht"
would work just fine! No need to find the path :)

But How To Set Path For Chromium in Ubuntu?
To get the path of Chromium on Ubuntu open a terminal window and type:
whereis chromium-browser
Most likely you need the path starting from /usr/bin. In my case: /usr/bin/chromium-browser.
