#Chrome remote desktop icon how to#
How to Set up, Enable & Use Chrome Remote Desktop on Windows 11.Are there any ideas about how to do this, hopefully with the use of another command line switch. I have not been able to figure out a setting that FORCES Windows and/or Chrome to create a unique icon for each unique task. If you forget, you have to run your mouse down the taskbar, hover over each icon, to find out which one is managing more than one unique task. It is really inconvenient to have to remember where all of them (which are being used for different tasks or projects) are located. This is IMPORTANT to me since I can have up to 10 or so copies of Chrome running. occasionally there is one icon that is managing more than one instance of Chrome.
The problem is that Windows or Chrome does not always start a new instance of Chrome using a different icon - i.e. With each instance of Chrome using a different profile, Windows usually puts a new icon in the task bar, so I can see every unique profile that I have started. There is one (silly?) problem with this that I would really like to fix. There is nothing major that needs to be fixed with this approach, as far as I know. I assume that everything I do in a particular session ends up in p, and is protected, essentially not accessible to anyone who might gain access to my computer. So I mount the drive, and start Chrome using the shortcut, and then unmount the drive when I’m done. I implement every unique profile using this approach, and it works very well. “C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” –user-data-dir=p:\CHRM Here is an example of a Windows 11 command line from one of my shortcuts: AND I always configure each case using a shortcut. I have always use the primary Windows storage location and not the users\username location. I use several profiles in order to separate the tasks and purposes that I implement with Chrome. Reading the list questions and looking at the command line options, I have clearly not figured everything out. Hoping it’s ok to post 3 months after the last post. This is September and is the first time I’ve used this list. Just right-click the shortcut, locate Google Chrome there, right-click on it and select Properties. If you are starting Google Chrome from a shortcut that is placed on the desktop, taskbar or start menu, then you can easily add command line switches to it. Adding Chrome Switches to Desktop Shortcuts/Icons This is great for testing purposes, but if you like a certain command and want to run it at all times, you may want to make those changes permanent so that they are automatically used whenever you load Chrome. Note that they always begin with two dashes. Type chrome.exe followed by the space-key, and then the command line switches you want to run.If you are running Windows Vista or newer, it is %LOCALAPPDATA%\Google\Chrome\Application.If you are running Windows XP, it is %USERPROFILE%\Local Settings\Application Data\Google\Chrome\Application.Use CD to change the directory to your Chrome profile directory.Tap on the Windows-key, type cmd and hit enter.The second and the easier way to add a flag to Chrome is the following:

List of Google Chrome Command Line Switches Some switches are only useful to developers as they enable them to test certain features in Chromium, while others have practical uses that users of the web browser will appreciate as well. Google Chrome supports hundreds of different command line switches (or flags) that may add features to the browser, change how features work, or remove features from it.
