Google Chrome Command Line Switches List

These are parameters you can pass with Google Chrome via command line


Condition Explanation
--0 Value of the --profiler-timing flag that will disable timing information for chrome://profiler.
--activate-existing-profile-browser If set, Chrome will activate any existing browsers for a specific profile. Used for example by the fast-user switcher in the Windows JumpList.
--allow-autofill-sync-credential Force the password manager to allow sync credentials to be autofilled.
--allow-cross-origin-auth-prompt Allows third-party content included on a page to prompt for a HTTP basic auth username/password pair.
--allow-external-pages Allow access to external pages during layout tests.
--allow-file-access On ChromeOS, file:// access is disabled except for certain whitelisted directories. This switch re-enables file:// for testing.
--allow-file-access-from-files By default, file:// URIs cannot read other file:// URIs. This is an override for developers who need the old behavior for testing.
--allow-http-background-page Allows non-https URL for background_page for hosted apps.
--allow-http-screen-capture Allow non-secure origins to use the screen capture API and the desktopCapture extension API. →
--allow-insecure-websocket-from-https-origin Allows frames with an https origin to use WebSockets with an insecure URL (ws://).
--allow-legacy-extension-manifests Allows the browser to load extensions that lack a modern manifest when that would otherwise be forbidden.

--allow-nacl-socket-api Specifies comma-separated list of extension ids or hosts to grant access to TCP/UDP socket APIs.
--allow-no-sandbox-job Enables the sandboxed processes to run without a job object assigned to them. This flag is required to allow Chrome to run in RemoteApps or Citrix. This flag can reduce the security of the sandboxed processes and allow them to do certain API calls like shut down Windows or access the clipboard. Also we lose the chance to kill some processes until the outer job that owns them finishes.
--allow-outdated-plugins Don't block outdated plugins.
--allow-running-insecure-content By default, an https page cannot run JavaScript, CSS or plug-ins from http URLs. This provides an override to get the old insecure behavior.

--enable-strict-site-isolation Experimentally ensures that each renderer process: 1) Only handles rendering for pages from a single site, apart from iframes. (Note that a page can reference content from multiple origins due to images, JavaScript files, etc. Cross-site iframes are also loaded in-process.) 2) Only has authority to see or use cookies for the page's top-level origin. (So if a.com iframes b.com, the b.com network request will be sent without cookies.) This is expected to break compatibility with many pages for now. Unlike the --site-per-process flag, this allows cross-site iframes, but it blocks all cookies on cross-site requests.

--metrics-recording-only Enables the recording of metrics reports but disables reporting. In contrast to kDisableMetrics, this executes all the code that a normal client would use for reporting, except the report is dropped rather than sent to the server. This is useful for finding issues in the metrics code during UI and performance tests.

--no-events Don't record/playback events when using record & playback.
--no-experiments Disables all experiments set on about:flags. Does not disable about:flags itself. Useful if an experiment makes chrome crash at startup: One can start chrome with --no-experiments, disable the problematic lab at about:flags and then restart chrome without this switch again.
--no-first-run Skip First Run tasks, whether or not it's actually the First Run. Overridden by kForceFirstRun. This does not drop the First Run sentinel and thus doesn't prevent first run from occuring the next time chrome is launched without this flag.
--no-managed-user-acknowledgment-check Disables checking whether we received an acknowledgment when registering a supervised user. Also disables the timeout during registration that waits for the ack. Useful when debugging against a server that does not support notifications.

--single-process Runs the renderer and plugins in the same process as the browser
--site-per-process Experimentally enforces a one-site-per-process security policy. All cross-site navigations force process swaps, and we can restrict a renderer process's access rights based on its site. For details, see: http://www.chromium.org/developers/design-documents/site-isolation Unlike --enable-strict-site-isolation (which allows cross-site iframes), this flag does not affect which cookies are attached to cross-site requests. Support is being added to render cross-site iframes in a different process than their parent pages.
--skip-gpu-data-loading Skip gpu info collection, blacklist loading, and blacklist auto-update scheduling at browser startup time. Therefore, all GPU features are available, and about:gpu page shows empty content. The switch is intended only for layout tests. TODO(gab): Get rid of this switch entirely.
--slow-down-raster-scale-factor Re-rasters everything multiple times to simulate a much slower machine. Give a scale factor to cause raster to take that many times longer to complete, such as --slow-down-raster-scale-factor=25.
--sms-test-messages Sends test messages on first call to RequestUpdate (stub only).
--spdy-proxy-auth-fallback The origin of the data reduction proxy fallback.

--speculative-resource-prefetching Speculative resource prefetching.
--spelling-service-feedback-interval-seconds Specifies the number of seconds between sending batches of feedback to spelling service. The default is 30 minutes. The minimum is 5 seconds. This switch is for temporary testing only. TODO(rouslan): Remove this flag when feedback testing is complete. Revisit by August 2013.
--spelling-service-feedback-url Specifies the URL where spelling service feedback data will be sent instead of the default URL. This switch is for temporary testing only. TODO(rouslan): Remove this flag when feedback testing is complete. Revisit by August 2013.
--ssl-version-fallback-min Specifies the minimum SSL/TLS version ("ssl3", "tls1", "tls1.1", or "tls1.2") that TLS fallback will accept.
--ssl-version-max Specifies the maximum SSL/TLS version ("ssl3", "tls1", "tls1.1", or "tls1.2").
--ssl-version-min Specifies the minimum SSL/TLS version ("ssl3", "tls1", "tls1.1", or "tls1.2").
--ssl3 These values aren't switches, but rather the values that kSSLVersionMax, kSSLVersionMin and kSSLVersionFallbackMin can have.
--stable-release-mode This makes us disable some web-platform runtime features so that we test content_shell as if it was a stable release. It is only followed when kDumpRenderTree is set. For the features' level, see http://dev.chromium.org/blink/runtime-enabled-features.
--start No description
--start-fullscreen Specifies if the browser should start in fullscreen mode, like if the user had pressed F11 right after startup.

--state-path No description
--stop No description
--strict-layer-property-change-checking Check that property changes during paint do not occur.

--supports-dual-gpus Indicates whether the dual GPU switching is supported or not.
--surface-worker Enables the SurfaceWorker experiment.
--swiftshader No description
--swiftshader-path No description

--sync-disable-deferred-startup Enables deferring sync backend initialization until user initiated changes occur.
--sync-enable-get-update-avoidance Enables feature to avoid unnecessary GetUpdate requests.
--sync-notification-host-port Overrides the default host:port used for notifications.
--sync-short-initial-retry-override This flag causes sync to retry very quickly (see polling_constants.h) the when it encounters an error, as the first step towards exponential backoff.
--sync-touchmove No description
--sync-url Overrides the default server used for profile sync.
--system-developer-mode Indicates that the system is running in dev mode. The dev mode probing is done by session manager.
--tab-capture-downscale-quality Upscale defaults to "good".

--touch-devices Tells chrome to interpret events from these devices as touch events. Only available with XInput 2 (i.e. X server 1.8 or above). The id's of the devices can be retrieved from 'xinput list'.
--touch-events Enable support for touch events.
--touch-scrolling-mode No description
--touchcancel No description
--trace-shutdown Causes TRACE_EVENT flags to be recorded beginning with shutdown. Optionally, can specify the specific trace categories to include (e.g. --trace-shutdown=base,net) otherwise, all events are recorded. --trace-shutdown-file can be used to control where the trace log gets stored to since there is otherwise no way to access the result.
--trace-shutdown-file If supplied, sets the file which shutdown tracing will be stored into, if omitted the default will be used "chrometrace.log" in the current directory. Has no effect unless --trace-shutdown is also supplied. Example: --trace-shutdown --trace-shutdown-file=/tmp/trace_event.log
--trace-startup Causes TRACE_EVENT flags to be recorded from startup. Optionally, can specify the specific trace categories to include (e.g. --trace-startup=base,net) otherwise, all events are recorded. Setting this flag results in the first call to BeginTracing() to receive all trace events since startup. In Chrome, you may find --trace-startup-file and --trace-startup-duration to control the auto-saving of the trace (not supported in the base-only TraceLog component).
--trace-startup-duration Sets the time in seconds until startup tracing ends. If omitted a default of 5 seconds is used. Has no effect without --trace-startup, or if --startup-trace-file=none was supplied.
--trace-startup-file If supplied, sets the file which startup tracing will be stored into, if omitted the default will be used "chrometrace.log" in the current directory. Has no effect unless --trace-startup is also supplied. Example: --trace-startup --trace-startup-file=/tmp/trace_event.log As a special case, can be set to 'none' - this disables automatically saving the result to a file and the first manually recorded trace will then receive all events since startup.
--trace-to-console Sends a pretty-printed version of tracing info to the console.
--trace-to-file Sends trace events from these categories to a file. --trace-to-file on its own sends to default categories.
--trace-to-file-name Specifies the file name for --trace-to-file. If unspecified, it will go to a default file name.
--trace-upload-url Sets the target URL for uploading tracing data.
--translate-script-url Overrides the default server used for Google Translate.
--translate-security-origin Overrides security-origin with which Translate runs in an isolated world.
--trusted-spdy-proxy Disables same-origin check on HTTP resources pushed via a SPDY proxy. The value is the host:port of the trusted proxy.
--try-chrome-again Experimental. Shows a dialog asking the user to try chrome. This flag is to be used only by the upgrade process.
--try-supported-channel-layouts Instead of always using the hardware channel layout, check if a driver supports the source channel layout. Avoids outputting empty channels and permits drivers to enable stereo to multichannel expansion. Kept behind a flag since some drivers lie about supported layouts and hang when used. See http://crbug.com/259165 for more details.
--ttl No description
--type The value of this switch determines whether the process is started as a renderer or plugin host. If it's empty, it's the browser.

--use-fake-device-for-media-stream Use fake device for Media Stream to replace actual camera and microphone.
--use-fake-ui-for-media-stream Bypass the media stream infobar by selecting the default device for media streams (e.g. WebRTC). Works with --use-fake-device-for-media-stream.
--use-file-for-fake-audio-capture Play a .wav file as the microphone. Note that for WebRTC calls we'll treat the bits as if they came from the microphone, which means you should disable audio processing (lest your audio file will play back distorted). Also the wav file will have to have the same number of channels, bits per sample and sampling frequency as the system's input device.
--use-file-for-fake-video-capture Use an .y4m file to play as the webcam. See the comments in media/video/capture/file_video_capture_device.h for more details.
--use-gl Select which implementation of GL the GPU process should use. Options are: desktop: whatever desktop OpenGL the user has installed (Linux and Mac default). egl: whatever EGL / GLES2 the user has installed (Windows default - actually ANGLE). osmesa: The OSMesa software renderer.
--use-gpu-in-tests Use hardware gpu, if available, for tests.

--use-mobile-user-agent Set when Chromium should use a mobile user agent.
--use-mock-keychain No description
--use-nacl-helper-nonsfi Use nacl_helper_nonsfi executable (the new, newlib-based version of the Non-SFI runtime) to run Non-SFI nexe, instead of nacl_helper executable (which uses the older, glib-based runtime for Non-SFI mode). TODO(hidehiko): Make this default and then remove this flag after nacl_helper_nonsfi is supported.
--use-normal-priority-for-tile-task-worker-threads Use normal priority for tile task worker threads. Otherwise they may be run at background priority on some platforms.
--use-simple-cache-backend Uses experimental simple cache backend if possible.
--use-spdy Uses Spdy for the transport protocol instead of HTTP. This is a temporary testing flag.
--use-surfaces Use the new surfaces system to handle compositor delegation.
--use-warp On Windows only: use the WARP software rasterizer in the GPU process.
--user-agent A string used to override the default user agent with a custom one.
--user-data-dir Specifies the user data directory, which is where the browser will look for all of its state.
--utility Causes the process to run as a utility subprocess.
--utility-allowed-dir The utility process is sandboxed, with access to one directory. This flag specifies the directory that can be accessed.
--utility-cmd-prefix On POSIX only: the contents of this flag are prepended to the utility process command line. Useful values might be "valgrind" or "xterm -e gdb --args".
--utility-enable-mdns Allows MDns to access network in sandboxed process.
--utility-run-elevated No description
--v Gives the default maximal active V-logging level; 0 is the default. Normally positive values are used for V-logging levels.
--v8-cache-options Set options to cache V8 data. (off, preparse data, or code)
--validate-crx Examines a .crx for validity and prints the result.
--validate-input-event-stream In debug builds, asserts that the stream of input events is valid.

--version Prints version information and quits.
--video-threads Set number of threads to use for video decoding.
--viewer-launch-via-appid Requests that Chrome launch the Metro viewer process via the given appid (which is assumed to be registered as default browser) and synchronously connect to it.
--vmodule Gives the per-module maximal V-logging levels to override the value given by --v. E.g. "my_module=2,foo*=3" would change the logging level for all code in source files "my_module.*" and "foo*.*" ("-inl" suffixes are also disregarded for this matching). Any pattern containing a forward or backward slash will be tested against the whole pathname and not just the module. E.g., "*/foo/bar/*=2" would change the logging level for all code in source files under a "foo/bar" directory.
--wait-for-debugger Will wait for 60 seconds for a debugger to come to attach to the process.
--wait-for-debugger-children Will add kWaitForDebugger to every child processes. If a value is passed, it will be used as a filter to determine if the child process should have the kWaitForDebugger flag passed on or not.
--wait-for-mutex Waits for the given handle to be signaled before relaunching metro Chrome on Windows 8 and higher.
--wake-on-packets Enables waking the device based on the receipt of some network packets.
