I am running Google Chrome in a Citrix 6.5 Windows 2008 R2 environment.  In order to make it work I launch it with the following command line arguments:

--allow-no-sandbox-job --disable-gpu --disable-quic

This works great when a user launches Chrome from a shortcut using these parameters.  But when Chrome is launched as a default application, like when you click on a link in an Outlook email, Chrome is not launched with these parameters and it crashes.

Is there a way to make this work?

Thanks!

This question belongs in superuser.com. There are probably answers to this question there already (or something like, "how to associate files with programs with command line flags" and similar).

You may not have to post on another forum.
You could try writing a shell script that starts Chrome with the arguments you want, and then make that script the default for viewing HTML pages.

I would say that explaining how to operate in Windows (or any other operating system for that matter) is completely off topic for this group, which is why I suggested superuser.com (that has the benefit of probably helping more people).
