Opens just fine in IE... why not in FF or Chrome? Is there a work-around?
This issue is caused by default security settings in Chrome and Firefox.
In order to have Chrome automatically open a *.mdb file after being downloaded, perform the following steps:
1) First time, tell the browser that you want to keep the file
2) Tell the browser that you want to open the file automatically from now on
3) After step #2, you will notice in your Chrome settings a new button to "Clear auto-opening settings"
4) Associate the file extension with Microsoft Access program

I used to be able to disable windows integrated authentication by updating the settings in IE. Recently this no longer works. Has something changed in recent versions of chrome? Is there a new way to turn this off?
Chrome version 46.0.2490.71
I used to use this setting in IE
Internet Options -> Advanced -> uncheck 'Enable Windows Integrated Authentication'
I got this response from an internal admin and it seems to work.
I think the best we came up with was to create a shortcut to
chrome.exe on your desktop and modify the target of the shortcut to be
something like:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --auth-server-whitelist="_"
Edit: Corrected the path for misplaced backslashes. Note also the (x86), just in case.
Expanding on Daniel Trimble's answer, which worked for me:
I would like to help more people find this useful answer by adding a little more context. What is Integrated Windows Authentication, and why would you want to disable it?
Basically, Integrated Windows Authentication allows a browser such as Chrome to access credentials that are stored on your computer (for example, the password you use to log into your office computer) and use those same credentials to log you into a website (for example, a password-protected portion of your company's website). This occurs behind the scenes, without a visible password prompt.
The problem is that you may not want to be automatically logged into a particular website.
Example: I like to use Chrome as a test browser to see the "public" view of my company's website. Generally I log into our site in Firefox or IE, make changes there, and then view the site in Chrome to make sure my changes were "published" as intended.
Suddenly, one day, I could no longer stay signed out of my company's website in Chrome. Whenever I navigated to a password-protected page, instead of giving me a login prompt, Chrome would automatically sign me in to Microsoft SharePoint (my company's content-management system) and show me the "logged in" version of that page.
If something similar is happening to you, there are other, more obvious things you should try first. Start by clearing your saved passwords (Chrome menu button > Settings > Show advanced settings > Passwords and forms > Manage passwords).
Clearing my saved passwords didn't work for me, so I tried other things: cleared the cache, removed all cookies, reset Chrome's settings, uninstalled and reinstalled Chrome. I even visited a password-protected page in an Incognito window, but Chrome still signed me in automatically.
Finally I found this Stack Overflow page, which solved the problem. (Thank you, Daniel Trimble!) Integrated Windows Authentication was the culprit. IWA used to be turned off by default in Chrome; you had to enable it via a checkbox in your Internet Options (shared with IE). At some point in the recent past, Google apparently decided to enable IWA by default. The unfortunate part is that they did not provide an option under Chrome's Settings panel to disable it. At least there's this workaround!
How to disable Integrated Windows Authentication (IWA) for Chrome via Windows' Control Panel:
(This applies to both Internet Explorer and Chrome since Chrome uses system settings that are managed using Internet Explorer.)
Press Windows' Start button, type "Internet Options" to search, and click the one result, from the control panel
Go to the "Security" tab
Select "Local Intranet" and click on "Custom Level" button
Scroll to the "User Authentication" section at the bottom of the list and select "Prompt for user name and password"
Click Ok, Apply, and Ok to save changes
Close all instances of the IE browser to make the changes effective. Launch the browser again and access the application. A basic authentication challenge will be served.

I found out we had a windows policy that set the following registry key:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Policies\Google\Chrome\AuthServerWhitelist
Deleting this key made Chrome prompt for a username and password for me.
More information about the registry keys.
Great and all the above answers work perfect.!
To add more -- I found that google chrome (version 68.0.3440.106) has the GUI option for Windows integrated authentication, just like in IE, this worked for me :)
goto chrome://settings/
Show advanced settings...
In the "Network" section, click on "Change proxy settings..."
Chrome opens the internet properties window
in the security tab
Select Local Intranet and Click on "Custom Level" button
Scroll to bottom of the window to User Authentication section, select "Prompt for user name and password"
Click Ok, Apply and Ok to save changes.

The question is regarding Bracket.io with Chrome as the default browser.
When using the option "Live Preview" Chrome browser opens with the live document, but does not show me the extensions and bookmarks that I have installed on my browser.
This is when Chrome opens Brackets Live Preview:
This is when I open it myself (with extensions and bookmarks but without automatic updates), which is how I would like to have it:
How I set it to open Chrome with my bookmarks and extensions?
Brackets Live Preview uses a separate Chrome profile from your regular copy of Chrome. It starts out as a completely clean new profile, so it won't have any of your regular bookmarks, etc. But Live Preview reuses that same profile on each subsequent launch -- so if you add bookmarks to the window Live Preview is running in, they'll reappear the next time you use Live Preview.
There are a couple good reasons for this, and also one way to work around it that's become available recently.
Quoting from my answer to "Why does Brackets open a new instance of chrome when using Live Editor?":
The Chrome profile that Brackets launches for Live Preview has the
Chrome Remote Debugging
API
enabled. There are two reasons Brackets uses a separate profile for
this:
Remote Debugging is off by default, and enabling it requires re-launching Chrome. Using a separate profile means your existing
browsing session doesn't have to be restarted, which would be
disruptive if you have lots of tabs open.
It reduces security slightly -- other processes on your local machine could use the Remote Debugging API to monitor / interfere
with other browsing you do in this Chrome window. (The API is not
exposed to the network, so if you trust your computer to be
malware-free, this is less of a concern).
If you don't like having to open a separate Chrome window, you can
check File > Enable Experimental Live Preview to try out a new Live
Preview implementation that doesn't require the Remote Debugging API,
and thus doesn't launch a new copy of Chrome. You can't use this
option if your project has a custom server URL set, though.
This is by design, as it sets various flags needed for remote debugging.

In your first Chrome Browser : If you don't have chrome account, please SignUp and Login. All of your Chrome Preference will be save in your account.
Then, in Brackets's Chrome Browser you have to login to Show all of your Chrome extensions

Is there a way to start google chrome without switches?
Is there a file where I can see and manage all current enabled switches?
If I enter chrome://version in the URL, I can see that currently there are some enabled switches that I can't find under chrome://flags, and I need to know if is there some file where they are stored, and if can I edit it, or if can I start chrome from command line without switches..
Please help
Try start chrome.
You can also go to "Run..." by pressing "Windows Key" + R, and type chrome.
Try chrome --help to see the switches.
Also there is a web page that list all switches
I'm looking at the offscreen-tabs experimental API here.
Then I tried to enable this but I don't see it in the chrome://flags/ part of the browser. Has it been removed from the browser as an experimental API or has it become a real API?
Yes Chrome OffScreen Tabs API was deleted from chrome extensions code base on 13 Dec 2012 as shown in this Patch / Changelist. This Chrome Issue asked to delete the specific API.
Chrome Extension Dev Page for Offline Tabs API also gives 404 that means corresponding document was also removed.

On your Windows computer, visit the Chrome Cleanup Tool website.
Click Download now.
Read the terms of service, and click Accept and Download.
When the file is downloaded, you'll see it at the bottom. Click the filename (chrome_cleanup_tool.exe).
Windows will ask if you want to run the file. Click Run.
The Chrome Cleanup Tool will scan your computer. You'll see a list of any malicious software found.
Click Remove suspicious programs.
Chrome will open a new tab, and ask you to reset your settings. Click Reset.
The problem is not that my console.log is not printed in the console. The problem is that the console is initially blank. I need to switch the tabs back and forth to get it working. Steps to reproduce:
1. Open Google chrome
2. Open some page
3. Open the console with Ctrl+Shift+I or F12
I even reinstall the browser (I kept the settings, because I can't afford to delete everything). Of course I removed all the extensions and disabled all the plugins. Still the same thing. Is there any application cache which I could delete to fix the problem.
Here is a screenshot:
P.S.
The error which you see is actually from the current page. It is not from the console. Here is what I see when open dev tools inside dev tools:
Uncaught TypeError: Cannot call method 'statusBarResized' of undefined inspector.js:2181
And all this happen after the latest big update of the browser.
Your preferences have probably become corrupted. If you can reproduce the bug, please open a ticket at http://crbug.com/new.
Reset the preferences to resolve the issue. These are saved in localStorage on chrome-devtools://devtools, so you need to open the devtools of the devtools (step 1-2 of https://stackoverflow.com/a/21149275/938089), and either:
Run localStorage.clear() (switch to the Console tab or press Esc to open a drawer)
OR Go to Resources, Local Storage and delete all items of the dev tools one by one.
The suggestion of clearing localStorage either didn't work or only worked temporarily for me. As mentioned in some of the comments, the solution that worked for me was to:
Open developer tools
Open settings pane from top right (or F1)
Click the 'Restore defaults and reload' button
I should also mention that I'm using Google Chrome 53.0.2754.0 canary (64-bit).
