Green Portable version of Google browser production process

Google Browser is a very simple browser, a lot of people like, I have been thinking, if you can make Google browser into a green version of the good, but the first time without any progress, at the beginning of the encounter several problems:

First, we also found that Google Browser installation is the time to take a silent installation, meaning that the installation is not prompted to install the path, directly installed to the default location, this is very uncomfortable;

Second, the Google browser is not like I modified pxcfirefox in the time of the. ini file, this file can directly modify the location of the Google browser configuration file, if you can customize the path of the configuration file, then I can put the Google Program files and configuration files together;

Third, Baidu Software Center can be found on the internet, Google's complete installation package is added shell, that is, can not be directly extracted with compression software to make the green version.

Here is my solution to the above problem:

1. We want to make a green browser, so it must not be installed on the installation of the local, and then extracted, this is not right, but need the kind of compression software can be extracted by the installation package;

2. But the installation package is added shell how to extract it? No matter, there is no shell of the Google Browser: https://api.shuax.com/tools/getchrome (There are many versions, there are 64 and 32-bit), the browser here can be unzipped, and the same as the official. No difference.

3. Google Browser can not customize the path of the configuration folder, I began to think of a method, is to create a shortcut, and then by setting the properties of the shortcut, and then add some parameters to achieve the effect of the path of the custom configuration folder, this method is: Right-click on the shortcut, properties, and then in the " Target "write some parameters to set the path of the configuration folder.

The parameter is this:--user-data-dir=c:\program files\google chrome\user data (the path to the right of the equals sign you can customize and can be set.) represents the current directory,. Represents the upper directory). However, although it is possible to customize the path of the configuration folder is correct, many online users also know this method, but this method will still cause a problem, is to join you set Google Browser as the default browser, then if you use QQ, thunder, and other software to call Google Browser outside the time, This time the call is not a Google browser shortcut, but the original Google Browser application, this but the original Google Browser application does not have a custom configuration folder path parameters, so this time open Google Browser will automatically generate another default configuration folder, different operating systems , this configuration folder is located in a different location, that is, the method of setting the shortcut can be used normally in Google Chrome, but does not support external calls.

But it doesn't matter, the problem can still be solved. Not to be continued ....
