Default position and opening size of Google Chrome

Question

I am a rather insane and lazy person, and currently I noticed that every day late in the evening, when I do some work, I leave my Google Chrome divided on the right side of the screen, and some documents on the left side. When I open the browser in the morning, I have to manually resize the window in length and width.

I am currently browsing the Internet to check if there is a solution to my problem, and have found a Google extension that does 75% of the work. It is called Windows Resizer .

However, you still need to click a button to resize the window. I would like to override the default Chromes settings and set the width, height, and position just like you can do with the VLC player.

Answer 1

Maybe a little late, but I found an easier way to set the defaults! You should right-click on the right of your tab and select “size”, then click on the window and save it as the default size.

Answer 2

Close all instances of Google Chrome first. Windows Task Manager should not have instances of chrome.exe . Then

• Go to C:\Users\<user ID>\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\ .
• Open the Settings file in a text editor such as Notepad.
• First, save the file as "Preference - Old" without any extension (i.e. no .txt ). This will serve as a backup if something goes wrong.
• Find the section called "browser." Inside this section, you should find a subsection called window_placement . In window_placement you will see things like “bottom”, “left”, “right”, etc. With numbers after them.

You will need to play with these numbers to get the right size and place in the window. When finished, save this file with the name "Preferences" again without the extension. This will overwrite the existing settings file. Open Chrome and see how you did it. If you’re not comfortable with the size and placement, close Chrome and change the numbers in the settings file until you get what you want.

Answer 3

You just need to grab the window in the title bar and snap it to the left side of the screen (close the browser), and then open the browser again and pin it to the top ... the problem is over.

Answer 4

You just need to take the window by the title bar and bind it to the left side of the screen (close the browser), then open the browser again and bind it to the beginning ... the problem is solved.

If you have not disabled the default snap-in function of Windows, then "The problem is NOT finished." Some of us do not like Windows to snap windows to such edges.

Dude, I like the all-knowing indulgent types who deign to let us plebeians know how to do this (the only way is their way), despite how much we annoy them with our trivial little things. Thank you, thank you, thank you, sir.

I wish I had an answer to this problem, as it drives me crazy when Chrome opens everywhere (despite my careful setting of size and position). I will be happy to publish the solution if I find one - AFTER I have a beer to celebrate;)
