The flag --disable-web-security that i used to allow cross domain request from local page seems doesn't work in Chrome version 35.0.1916.114 m?
Could you confirm ?
I am using chrome stable 35.0.1916.153 m and --disable-web-security works for me.
If you are unable to use it, follow these steps (reposting my similar answer):
Kill chome from task Manager First. In Windows - Right Click (or Shift+right click, incase of taskbar) on Chrome Icon. Select Properties. In "Target" textbox, add --disable-web-security flag.
So text in textbox should look like
"C:\Users\njadhav\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome SxS\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-web-security
Click Ok and launch chrome.

Hi, stackoverflow, i am trying to debug a react native app on a Mac and when i open chrome in disabled security mode, the data rendered by google chrome is not normal.
google resultas are not shown, and the design of chrome get messed (the image above)
this is the command : open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --disable-web-security --user-data-dir
You are probably using Chrome 67.
This problem has been fixed in the last Canary, so you can:
wait for the next Chrome
use an old version (e.g. install Chromium 66)
or you can:
Add the --disable-site-isolation-trials argument to chrome via https://docs.cypress.io/api/plugins/browser-launch-api.html#Usage

For the life of me I can't find where to enable this setting: Override requests with workspace project in Chrome Canary v64.0.3
Where do you enable this feature?
I learned about this feature from here: https://umaar.com/dev-tips/162-network-overrides/
Currently with 65 Chrome Canary it's not experimental anymore.
But you still cannot "Save for overrides" XHR requests.
This restriction is only in UI. To get XHR request override:
Open "Sources tab" in Chrome Canary DevTools and "Overrides" sub-tab under it.
Check "Enable Local Overrides" and add a folder to store changes in the filesystem.
Open "Network" tab in Chrome Canary DevTools and select XHR request
Press "Open in new tab"
Go to new opened tab Chrome DevTools - "Network"
Select the first request in the list and "Save for Overrides" button appears.
You can follow the gif from question starting step 5:
It's behind an experiment (https://developers.google.com/web/tools/chrome-devtools/ui#experiments) then it'll be under experiments in the settings panel of devtools.
Please do be warned though, this is an experimental feature, there are bugs and it might not work as intended.
We are trying hard to get it fully released soon (on Canary) but it needs to be a 1st class feature before we will feel ready to release it.
I think they might have shipped the feature, so it's no longer behind an experiment.
Try the workflow that Umaar outlined, omitting the step about enabling the experiment.
Haven't tried it myself yet, so I could be wrong
The feature is no longer an experiment in Chrome Canary (current version at the time of this: 64.0.3261.0). You can start to use it now. It will take a little time to arrive in Chrome stable.
In the latest version of Chrome Canary (Version 65.0.3317.2) you still need to enable dev tool experiments. The option is still behind the experiment flag #kayce-basques . I also followed the tutorial of Umaar - also using GitHub for testing - but I don't get any visible website changes after pressing F5.
Has someone figured out how to get it to work?
(1) Select the Overrides Tab in the Sources Panel.
(2) Click the Setup Overrides ( + icon) to add an empty folder.
(3) Confirm that Enable Network Overrides are enabled.
(4) Select the js file to be persisted on the Network Tab and display the source code in the code editor.
(5) Add code “console.log (‘hello world’);” to the beginning of the source code.
(6) Right click on the source code, select command [Save for overrides] on the context menu.
(7) Reload the current page after saving the file.
(8) Open the Console Panel and check the result.
This feature is now enabled in chrome stable you can follow these step:
In chrome go to "Sources tab" then in devtools "Overrides" click "Enable Local Overrides" then create a folder to put the changes in the filesystem. Go to
"Network" then select XHR request then "Open in new tab" then go to new opened tab Chrome DevTools - "Network"
pick the first request in the list and normally you will have a "Save for Overrides" button appears.
As you probably know, Chrome Dev Tools has the same icon as browser itself. In order, to increase productivity I would like to change it's icon, so it will be easier to find it in the taskbar.
Thanks in advance.
Give this a try:
Open up Chrome and then open up developer tools in another window so that you have two Chrome icons on your taskbar. Right click the devtools one and Pin to taskbar.
Right click on the newly pinned icon, right click on Google Chrome (2) and properties.
Under Shortcut->Change Icon, pick something else. Then 'OK' out.
You'll need to restart explorer.exe, so open Windows Task manager, kill explorer.exe and restart it.
You'll now see two different icons.
Do this: Start regular Chrome. Then CTRL+Shift+i and it should open devtools as the new icon.
Unfortunately, clicking the devtools icon initially will not open devtools on startup. Supposedly you can change the properties to start using chrome.exe --args --auto-open-devtools-for-tabs but I was unable to make that work.
YMMV with your operating system but this works with Windows 7. Hope that helps.
Note: If you're using Windows 10, you won't see explorer in the task manager by default, you have to click "More details" on the bottom and switch to the "Details" tab.
Alternatively, open PowerShell and type:
Get-Process explorer -ErrorAction SilentlyContinue | Stop-Process
This will kill explorer, and windows will automatically restart it
This answer may be a nice work around for non-Windows users who are debugging from Visual Studio Code. It uses Chrome's Canary build for debugging. It has a different icon so telling it apart from regular Chrome should be easy.
This answer talks about setting the executable to Canary which is easily distinguishable from regular Chrome. You will need to download the Canary version of Chrome first.
settings.json:
"runtimeExecutable": "canary"
How to configure Visual Studio Code debugger to use Chrome Canary?
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..
Chrome browser by default is blocking mixed content. How do I adjust my settings/configuration to allow mixed content without making any adjustments on the UI every time?
I have found two solutions but neither of them work:
Several articles say you can adjust this under the Security section
of "Under the Hood" in the Options. This option no longer seems to
exist. There is no Under The Hood tab and there is no such dropdown
to adjust how Chrome handles mixed content as far as I can tell.
Another option is to add the --allow-running-insecure-content flag
to your command line. I did this like so: "C:\Program
Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"
--allow-running-insecure-content. However this made no difference. If I tried adding the flag inside the double quotes, then Windows
complains saying it is invalid.
So what option do I have now with the latest version of Chrome?
Steps as of Chrome v91 (6/17/2021):
Click the Not secure warning next to the URL
Click Site settings on the popup box
Near the bottom of the list is Insecure content, change this to Allow
Close settings, go back to the site, and Refresh the page

In the address bar at the right end should be a 'shield' icon, you can
click on that to run insecure content.
This worked for me in Chromium-dev Version 36.0.1933.0 (262849).
In Windows open the Run window (Win + R):
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe --allow-running-insecure-content
In OS-X Terminal.app run the following command ⌘+space:
open /Applications/Google\ Chrome.app --args --allow-running-insecure-content
Note: You seem to be able to add the argument --allow-running-insecure-content to bypass this for development. But its not a recommended solution.
The shield icon that is being mentioned was not in the sidebar for me either, however I solved it doing the following:
Find the shield icon located in the far right of the URL input bar,
Once clicked, the following popup should appear wherein you can click Load unsafe scripts,
That should result in a page refresh and the scripts should start working. What used to be an error,
is now merely a warning,
OS: Windows 10
Chrome Version: 76.0.3809.132 (Official Build) (64-bit)
Edit #1
On version 66.0.3359.117, the shield icon is still available:
Notice how the popup design has changed, so this is Chrome on version 66.0.3359.117.
Note: The shield icon will only appear when you try to load insecure content (content from http) while on https.
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" " --allow-running-insecure-content"
On OSX using the current Chrome build (2/20/2020, 79.0.3945.130), you can:
Click on the 'i' info icon on the left side of address bar.
Click Site Settings
Scroll down to Insecure content
Change it from Blocked (Default) to Allow
Reload the page and try your action again.
running the following command helps me running https web-page, with iframe which has ws (unsecured) connection
chrome.exe --user-data-dir=c:\temp-chrome --disable-web-security --allow-running-insecure-content
Another solution which is permanent in nature between sessions without requiring you to run a specific command when opening chrome is as follows:
Open a Chrome window
In the URL bar enter Chrome://net-internals
Click on "Domain Security Policy" in the side-bar
Add the domain name which you want to always be able to access in http form into the "Add HSTS/PKP domain" section
On OSX the following works from the command line:
/Applications/Google\ Chrome.app/Contents/MacOS/Google\ Chrome --allow-running-insecure-content
Chrome 46 and newer should be showing mixed content without any warning, just without the green lock in address bar.
