How to hide chrome warning after crash?












26















When Chrome has crashed, it displays a warning (under the address bar) upon restart, offering to restore tabs. I'm launching chrome in kiosk mode and I don't want theses warnings to be displayed.



Is there a way to do this ?

You should run Chrome in Incognito Mode with this command:



chrome --incognito --kiosk http://127.0.0.1


Here they talk about running this command before starting Chrome to stop the Restore Bar from appearing:



sed -i 's/"exited_cleanly": false/"exited_cleanly": true/' 
~/.config/google-chrome/Default/Preferences

Based on @MiQUEL's answer to this duplicate question:



There are a few approaches.



Incognito mode (--incognito) helps, but it has several disadvantages, such as disabling the cache.



Passing --disable-infobars --disable-session-crashed-bubble works in some versions of Chrome, but, as of Chrome 58, it no longer works. (Removing the --disable-session-crashed-bubble was done as part of this issue; comments there suggest that the flag was intended to test the bubble feature and was not intended as an end-user feature to hide the Chrome warning).



The most reliable approach I've found is to manually edit Chrome's on-disk preferences. Here's how you do this on Linux. (Note that these instructions are for chromium-browser; Google Chrome itself uses ~/.config/google-chrome instead of ~/.config/chromium.)



sed -i 's/"exited_cleanly":false/"exited_cleanly":true/' ~/.config/chromium/'Local State'
sed -i 's/"exited_cleanly":false/"exited_cleanly":true/; s/"exit_type":"[^"]+"/"exit_type":"Normal"/' ~/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences


Putting it all together with a couple of additional flags that have been helpful for kiosk mode in one Chrome version or another:



#!/bin/sh
sed -i 's/"exited_cleanly":false/"exited_cleanly":true/' ~/.config/chromium/'Local State'
sed -i 's/"exited_cleanly":false/"exited_cleanly":true/; s/"exit_type":"[^"]+"/"exit_type":"Normal"/' ~/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences
chromium-browser --kiosk --no-default-browser-check --no-first-run --disable-infobars --disable-session-crashed-bubble "http://some_url/"

    This finally worked for me, and it's pretty simple:




    1. Shut down Chromium gracefully

    2. Change the "Change content" permissions of ~/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences to "Nobody"


    That will lock the state of two variables, regardless of how Chromium
    was shut down:




    • "exit_type": "Normal"

    • "exited_cleanly": true


    Of course, only do that after you're done setting preferences

      Please do not post the same answer to multiple questions. If the same information really answers both questions, then one question (usually the newer one) should be closed as a duplicate of the other. You can indicate this by voting to close it as a duplicate or, if you don't have enough reputation for that, raise a flag to indicate that it's a duplicate. Otherwise tailor your answer to this question and don't just paste the same answer in multiple places.

      This seemed like a great solution at first glance. The main problem is that when using this with WebDriver under Selenium, chromedriver complains (at least on a Windows node) that it can't write to the prefs file at startup, so it won't let you launch a session when the prefs file is read-only.

      – Scott Dudley

    I have been trying to solve this problem for days. Incognito mode comes without cache, and changing Preferences file did not work for me.



    Finally I have been able to solve by following steps below:




    1. Go to chrome://flags url. Search for “Enable session restore bubble UI” and set it to Disabled.

    2. open chrome with --kiosk --disable-infobars options.

        Confirmed, this works for me on Chromium 47 on Linux.

              This finally worked for me, and it's pretty simple:




              1. Shut down Chromium gracefully

              2. Change the "Change content" permissions of ~/.config/chromium/Default/Preferences to "Nobody"


              That will lock the state of two variables, regardless of how Chromium
              was shut down:




              • "exit_type": "Normal"

              • "exited_cleanly": true


              Of course, only do that after you're done setting preferences

                Please do not post the same answer to multiple questions. If the same information really answers both questions, then one question (usually the newer one) should be closed as a duplicate of the other. You can indicate this by voting to close it as a duplicate or, if you don't have enough reputation for that, raise a flag to indicate that it's a duplicate. Otherwise tailor your answer to this question and don't just paste the same answer in multiple places.

                This seemed like a great solution at first glance. The main problem is that when using this with WebDriver under Selenium, chromedriver complains (at least on a Windows node) that it can't write to the prefs file at startup, so it won't let you launch a session when the prefs file is read-only.

              I have been trying to solve this problem for days. Incognito mode comes without cache, and changing Preferences file did not work for me.



              Finally I have been able to solve by following steps below:




              1. Go to chrome://flags url. Search for “Enable session restore bubble UI” and set it to Disabled.

              2. open chrome with --kiosk --disable-infobars options.
