I saw this two videos
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kVSo4buDAEE
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x6qe_kVaBpg
and I wanted to try google workspaces on my linux desktop
I followed these instructions: https://plus.google.com/+GoogleChromeDevelopers/posts/644qQuBKZeL
And this detailed tutorial: http://devcoma.blogspot.it/2013/01/how-to-enable-workspace-experiment-on.html
But the "File system folders in Sources Panel" won't show up
I tried with "Chromium Version 25.0.1364.160 Ubuntu 13.04 (25.0.1364.160-0ubuntu3)"
and also with "Chrome Version 29.0.1530.2 dev"
(I installed this dev version from http://www.chromium.org/getting-involved/dev-channel)
Anybody had any luck whith this?
I found the way to test it.
These are the steps I had to follow
Install a ppa with a more recent chromium version, from here:
http://www.webupd8.org/2012/09/new-chromium-stable-and-development.html
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:a-v-shkop/chromium-dev
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install chromium-browser
as of today it install Version 27.0.1453.6 Ubuntu 13.04 (191032)
Open the browser and in the url bar enter chrome://flags/
enabled "Enable Developer Tools experiments."
restart the browser
open the web page you want to debug using workspaces
press F12 to open the dev tool
press F1 to open the settings panel
go to Experiments and check "File system folders in Sources Panel"
restart browser
in your file system, add a file named .allow-devtools-edit
cd
touch .allow-devtools-edit
once again, press F12, F1, and select Workspace, add folder, and add the root of your project
to map your web site to your file system, right click on any js file and select 'Map to network resource', then choose the corresponding file
and that's it, in the Workspace section of your Settings, you will see that a mapping has been added, with something like
'http://localhost:9000' -> '/home/opensas/dev/apps/my_js_project'
The good news is that it seems that with the latest Google Chrome development version everything works out of the box, no need to mess around with development or experimental features.
This question is a duplicate for this one
In the Dev-channel version things were changed a bit.
So you don't need to enable devtools experiments
and don't need to manually create .allow-devtools-edit

I noticed that my Google Chrome installed to
C:\Program Files \Google\Chrome\Application\
but i need it in
C:\Users\manish\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application
for my program to run. I even tried moving the folder but chrome didn't even start from there.
Is there a way of installing Google Chrome to
C:\Users\manish\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application
Installing only for a specific user (here, the user with 'UserName') instead of installing for every user using the PC can be of help.
I have the 4.0.3 Octave version on my machine.
and I would like to upgrade my version using windows.
Can someone tell me please the steps to follow?
Thanks.
If you want to remove v4.0.3, the complete answer will depend on how you installed that version in the first place.
If you used an executable installer, then there should be an 'uninstall' option available. On Windows 10, you can sometimes right click on the shortcut in the startmenu and an Uninstall option will appear. Otherwise you can follow the directions at this link to navigate through the Settings to the Apps & Features window, which lists everything installed and will provide an Uninstall option.
If you used a zip package to 'install' Octave 4.0.3 just by unzipping it to a folder on your hard drive, then no uninstall process is necessary. you can just delete the folder and shortcuts manually.
You can have multiple octave versions installed next to each other, the folders will have version numbers to prevent them from overwriting themselves.
To install the latest version (5.1.0 as of this answer, although 5.2.0 will be released very soon):
You can find the installation files for Windows by going to the Octave download page and clicking 'Windows'. There will be several file options there. Most people choose the first one (octave-5.1.0-w64-installer.exe) for 64bit systems. You can just download that or one of the other .exe versions, execute that program, and follow the prompts. If for some reason you would rather download a zip package and do a manual setup, I suggest you follow the instructions at the Octave for Microsoft Windows Wiki page to make sure everything is configured correctly.
When I try to run the open-in-browser extension (TechER version; there are a few such extensions by roughly the same name) in VS Code (1.41.1), I continually get the following error message: "Open browser failed!! Please check if you have installed the browser correctly!"
I reinstalled google-chrome, made sure it was default, double-checked the xdg settings, but it still won't work. Any suggestions much appreciated
It is because there is no binary executable named google-chrome may be yours is google-chrome-stable .
One thing you can do is to copy the binary file google-chrome-stable and create a renamed file google-chrome
Or you can set a bah alias
alias google-chrome='google-chrome-stable'
I was having this same issue with the "open in browser" extension. I clicked on the settings icon and installed an older version 1.1.0. Its working again for me.
I want to downgrade my chrome on Ubuntu
Because I have problems when selenium runs against Chrome 34.
I have installed chrome 33.
But then every once in a while the auto-updater update the chrome.
How can i disable the auto-upadter on Linux specifically?
I had a similar task recently. This is the script I ran to download previous Chrome version, disable auto update and check the installed version:
sudo wget http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/pool/main/g/google-chrome-stable/google-chrome-stable_75.0.3770.142-1_amd64.deb && \
sudo dpkg -i google-chrome-stable_75.0.3770.142-1_amd64.deb && \
sudo apt-mark hold google-chrome-stable && \
google-chrome-stable --version \
you can google to find an archive website. I have mentioned 2 of them here, though there are hundreds of them around.
0- choose the version you want to install by going to an archive website like this:
http://www.ubuntuupdates.org/pm/google-chrome-stable
1- In the Download section download the 64-Bits or 32-Bits package suitable for your OS ( or you can directly Press APT_INSTALL button)
3- Install the package using Ubuntu software center. you may need to remove the existing version first.
4- for disabling auto updates you can go to SystemSettings/ Software & Updates from Ubuntu applications Menu
Doing the same things command line:
I assume your user name is "user" you replace it with your username.
1- Browse the website http://www.slimjet.com/chrome/google-chrome-old-version.php or any other archive website.
2- Download a proper version of google-chrome ( I brought 49.0.2623.75 Linux_64)
3- Save the downloaded file in /home/user/Downloads
4- Open a console and execute the following commands:
user#host:~/workspace $ cd ~/Downloads/
user#host:~/Downloads $
user#host:~/Downloads $ sudo dpkg -i ./chrome64_49.0.2623.75.deb
of course you would replace the file name with the one you downloaded.
You can search for software and updates in your dash bar
You can click on Softwares and updates app which is listed
Go to the other Software tab in the window which is opened
you can uncheck the http://dl.google.com/linux/chrome/deb/stable main
and then you can uninstall the new version of chrome and install the old one.
Hope this helps.
Google Chrome on my machine recently got updated to v44.
I'm working with Selenium WebDriver on Chrome and as soon as I updated Chrome, all my tests went dead. I use Chromedriver v2.16. My partner's PC has Chrome v42.0.2311.90 and Chromedriver v2.16. And tests run fine on his machine. Now, based on this I'm pretty sure the problem is probably not with Chromedriver.
So, how can I downgrade to Chrome 42.0.2311.90?
I've tried using an offline installer from here:
Google Chrome Alternate Offline Installer
But this always gives me the latest version to install i.e. v44.
The release that I need can be found here:
Google Chrome v42.0.2311.90 Stable Channel Update
Uninstall your current chrome version.
Remove all Chrome data for current version from: C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome
Download your particular version from chrome_installer.
Disable chrome updates using instructions given on this link.
Following steps help you to install your desired google chrome version :
1 - Uninstall your current google chrome version.
2 - Download your desired google chrome version from here : Google Chrome Download
3 - Restart PC once so if any registry or temp file stored of previous google chrome then it will get refresh.
4 - Install your downloaded google chrome. And then turn off automatic chrome update.
I struggled with this same problem on Mac, trying to downgrade, and stay downgraded from Chrome 53 to 52 due to a serious bug affecting webaudio.
None of the other recommendation appear to apply any more (or on Mac OS X at least). The app attempts to upgrade itself and there doesn't be a way to configure that in a "Chrome-friendly" way.
Eventually I resorted to force...
Close and uninstall Chrome
Edit your /etc/hosts file to prevent update checks from working by overriding the DNS entry:
0.0.0.0 tools.google.com
Find and download an old release. This is left as an exercise, this was actually hard and fraught with fear of bad binaries. I was able to cross-reference MD5s from one site that didn't have downloads with another that had downloads.
Install and run the older version
Important: Check the "About" page, and point and laugh at Chrome's attempts to check in.
This is how you can use an older chrome version "in general":
Uninstall your current chrome
Install the chrome version you desire
DO NOT open chrome!! after installation
Instead disable auto-updates like here or here
Only then may you work with your desired chrome browser version
As for how to get a specific older version:
You need to google, search forums or try sites like this. It's just "grunt work" to find the version you are looking for. If you're extremely unlucky, the very version you need might even not be around any more.
If you are running on a windows machine you can leverage the package manager chocolatey, this is how we I'm doing it from Jenkins, we call a powershell that uninstalls a previous version and install a specific one: From a powershell ide script window, you need to have installed the modules for chocolatey that is a small price to pay for a lot of benefit:
choco install googlechrome --version 62.0.3202.94 -y
Then to prevent Chrome to self update I am performing this steps:
1. Verify Chrome's current version.
(Get-Item (Get-ItemProperty 'HKLM:\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\App Paths\chrome.exe').'(Default)').VersionInfo
Install the version I'm aiming for:
choco install googlechrome --version 62.0.3202.94 -y
You can look for available versions here:
https://chocolatey.org/packages/GoogleChrome
(Find Version History Section)
Kill GoogleCrashHandler.exe in any of its variants 32 or 64 bits or both.
Delete the Directories
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Update and
C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\CrashReporter
You will loose the ability to auto update (which is the whole purpose right) and
you will loose the ability to send crash reports and piggy back on that executable to update against your will whenever google deems convenient.
