Hello

Idea 2: ( Brandon_Hein) Using Desired Capabilities it might be possible to set Chrome to use a proxy server. If that proxy server is some non existing server address then you would be effectively offline.


Idea4: there are some topics about devtools api and how to use it programtically.

Seems like from devtools is the only option left to have chrome in offline mode since 3x.something version

Feel free to dig into


These offline installers can be used to install Google Chrome in Windows 7, Windows 8/8.1, Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating systems. The offline installer comes in both 32-bit (x86) and 64-bit (x64) editions.


Above mentioned links allow you to download offline installer of Chrome stable version but if you want to download offline installers for other testing versions of Google Chrome such as Beta, Dev or Canary, following links will help you:






For some reason, chrome will detect your Operation system architect is 64 or 32 for get link download.

Link will show as link below on url bar. If you use 64 bit system and want to download 32 bit simple change TRUE to FALSE in url bar

google.com/chrome/?system=true&standalone=1


I check and install updates once a week, except for I just finished TWO computers, and then found out that the chrome I JUST installed was out of date. I had to update the chrome on 3 more computers that I use, but on the one I dropped off at the client in the next city? I had to go pick up the machine, bring it back, update it, optimize it, and return it.


Ideally I'd like an extension which did something like: right click on tab, select "Make available offline" and then if I'm not connected to the internet and go to that page then it's loaded from cache.


Some extensions don't annotate but save offline, some save but need you to register on another social network. Some save images(which I actually prefer). But cant be indexed and searched. My Scrapbook is an attempt to do all that. In short it aspires to be like my favourite Firefox counter part.


I'm trying to test out my fallback page in my html5 cache manifest. I'd rather not have to actually disconnect from the internet in order to do it. I've heard that it doesn't work quite right in Chrome, so I need to test it specifically. Does Chrome have the ability to work offline? I've searched through the settings and the available extensions, and I can't find anything.


It looks like Chrome now has this feature via Chrome developer tools (Ctrl-Shift-I). Click on the "Device Mode" icon at the top-left. Now, a device and network bandwidth and latency (or completely offline) can be simulated using the dropdowns at the top of the screen:


Enable Show Saved Copy Button

When a page fails to load, if a stale copy of the page exists in the browser cache, a button will be presented to allow the user to load that stale copy. The primary enabling choice puts the button in the most salient position on the error page; the secondary enabling choice puts it secondary to the reload button.


No matter how many times I press F5 to reload the site, if the developer tools are open, it simply won't reload the page. But if I close the tools (not the browser, it remains open) and press F5 again, the page reloads perfectly.


Then I found your site where you show how to use Ionic: Using Ionic in PlayCanvas Playing in Canvas

Is this what you suggested by PWA ?

And will it allow me to launch the project 100% offline?


In this article, we learned about how we can make PWAs installable with a properly-configured web manifest, and how the user can then install the PWA with the "add to home screen" feature of their browser.


From there you can add a second file, a service worker javascript script, where you can add network rules on how the application will fetch files, how it will store them on cache and when it will prefer to serve a cached file instead of re-downloading. This way you may be able to achieve a fully offline experience.


Note that I DONT want to start the browser in offline mode as mentioned here: Selenium: How to set browser in offline mode?. Instead I want to start the browser connected and then switch it off and a specific moment.


Note that I dont want to do it manually with the mouse, because this is for creating an automated test with Selenium. So I need to be able to send the instruction to go offline somehow with a script.


However, trying to login with 1password does NOT work. I always have to type everything in. Looking through different forums I ran across the notion of offline. So I noticed my Chrome extension is offline (hun???)


1 - Plugin says I'm offline

2 - I click the offline icon

3 - I click the [Continue Signing In] button

4 - The "Enter your master password" dialog appears, I type it in

5 - I'm brought to main page in a new tab, where I need to type in AGAIN my master password because apparently

"Your session has expired. 1Password in the browser would like you to sign in again to authenticate."

6 - Once I do that the new tab disappears (successfully?)

7 - Goto #1 The plugin says I'm still offline


Update: Google removed this experimental flag from Chrome. If you try to visit a web page while you're offline, Chrome may automatically load cached versions of some web pages---but there's no way to control this. Mozilla Firefox still has a built-in "Work Offline" mode, so you may want to try Firefox.


NOTE: Offline mode is enabled in the chrome://flags features. These are experimental features that may change, break, or disappear at any time and could negatively affect your browsing experience. However, if you follow our instructions, you should have no problem.


When you enable offline drive in the chrome browser it seems by default it makes recent files available automatically. I need to know how much data it makes available offline by default when you enable offline access.


The data that is synced for offline use is stored in the "Chrome cache" folder on your computer's hard drive. However, the exact location of this folder may vary depending on your operating system. Generally, on Windows, it can be found at C:\Users[username]\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Cache, on Mac at /Users/[username]/Library/Caches/Google/Chrome/Default/Cache, and on Linux at /.cache/google-chrome/Default/Cache.


here are the links to the official Google support pages for adjusting the storage limit for offline access in Google Drive on Chrome and for finding the "Chrome cache" folder on your computer's hard drive:


Two of my most frequent websites (hotmail and local newspaper) have somehow downloaded offline versions. Everytime i go to the site it loads the offline version for that site despite me being connected.


The web browser is arguably the most important piece of software on your computer. You spend much of your time online inside a browser: when you search, chat, email, shop, bank, read the news, and watch videos online, you often do all this using a browser.


Google Chrome is a browser that combines a minimal design with sophisticated technology to make the web faster, safer, and easier. Use one box for everything--type in the address bar and get suggestions for both search and Web pages. Thumbnails of your top sites let you access your favorite pages instantly with lightning speed from any new tab. Desktop shortcuts allow you to launch your favorite Web apps straight from your desktop. Chrome has many useful features built in, including automatic full-page translation and access to thousands of apps, extensions, and themes from the Chrome Web Store.


My gf just mooved in the house, so we merged her devices on my home, we deleted her google home and i sent her manager invite for my google home. She is now part of the home, she can see all lights, speaker and camera But when she want to see camera image, it just stay black and it says that camera are offline. But they are not as i am looking at then on my android. She have an iphone 13 pro. She has no update, we forced killed the google home app and restarted her phone. Still no image from camera.


There's been an unsecure website an entire fanbase has been pointing me to on and off again, and wouldn't you know it, I found out that's been the death of my last three computers. I won't get into it but I'd really hate to have to bleach this computer and restart, but I will if it comes down to it. It's just a browser extension that redirects websites with ads to a website with "lijit" in the title, which my antivirus flags and aborts. It's on two different computers because I was simultaneously logged into chrome on both. It also affects other browsers installed on these devices. I tried Errore's solution of just uninstalling and reinstalling chome but it was unaffective and both malwarebytes and avast do not detect anything on full virus scans, not even when I scan the original file it may have come from, which is only still on my device because I would like to know from someone who knows what they're doing what I should do about it, rather than just deleting it.


NOTE-2: As part of this fix all temporary files will be removed. If you have any open web pages that have not been bookmarked please make sure you bookmark them now as all open applications will be automatically closed. Also, make sure you know the passwords for all websites as cookies will also be removed. The use of an external password manager is highly recommended instead of using your browser to store passwords.


Please make sure you Exit out of any other program you might have open so that the sole task is to run the following scan.

That goes especially for web browsers, make sure all are fully exited out of and messenger programs are exited and closed as well
