Google Chrome Portable

Chrome is a fast, simple, and secure web browser, built for the modern web. Chrome is designed to be fast in every possible way. It’s quick to start up from your desktop, loads web pages in a snap, and runs complex web applications lightning fast. Chrome’s browser window is streamlined, clean and simple. For example, you can search and navigate from the same box and arrange tabs however you wish — quickly and easily. Chrome is designed to keep you safer and more secure on the web with built-in malware and phishing protection, auto-updates to make sure you have all the latest security fixes, and more. Chrome puts you in control of your private information while helping protect the information you share when you’re online. There are tons of ways to customize Chrome and make it yours. It’s easy to tweak your settings and add apps, extensions, and themes from the Chrome Web Store. Signing in to Chrome brings your bookmarks, history, and other settings to all your computers. It also automatically signs you in to all your favorite Google services.

App Notes

Passwords Not Saved Between PCs By Default: Google Chrome stores passwords in such a way that they are encrypted in a way tied to current PC. While the passwords are not kept or left behind on the PC itself, they won’t be retrievable when you move to a new PC. We’ve added password portability as an advanced option, though, which you can enable by reading the help.html file.

Certificates Not Portable: Google Chrome has no certificate manager. It uses Windows’ certificates manager. So, any certificates you install through the Google Chrome interface are stored on the current local machine and will not travel with you. Thus, you should not use any private certificates with Google Chrome except on your own PC.

Some Settings/Extensions Locked Per PC: Google Chrome locks specific settings to a given PC. Details are included in this post. This behavior is by design by the Chrome team. If you would like this changed, please file a bug with the Chrome team. A suggested workaround is to sign in to Google to restore all settings and extensions and to use an extension such as Session Buddy to maintain your session state as you move PCs. Note that PortableApps.com has not evaluated this extension.

Note that other portable browsers such as Mozilla Firefox, Portable Edition do not have any of the issues mentioned above. These issues are specific to Chrome due to Chrome’s design and not something we can work around without fixes to the base app by the Chrome developers.

Есть ли портативная версия Chrome для Ubuntu?

Я ищу портативную версию Chrome (не Chromium), с которой я могу работать на Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. Я могу найти только Chromium или действительно устаревшие версии. Из-за ограничений на машину, которую я использую, я не могу установить Wine или использовать какие-либо функции администратора, поскольку я работаю со стандартной учетной записью. В идеале, я бы предпочел иметь официальную версию или хотя бы ту, которая существует в репозитории, которую я могу apt-get от.

(Я это понимаю apt-get требует sudo, я могу использовать его для начальной настройки vagrant, но это все. Следовательно, зачем мне нужны неадминные методы)

Что ж, «портативный» практически ничего не значит в мире Linux.
Вы можете установить любое приложение в любом месте системы. Если вы делаете это осторожно, в принципе вы можете установить любое приложение и его зависимости на USB-накопитель с ext разбить на разделы и запустить его на любом компьютере Linux с такой же архитектурой.

В частности, Chrome уже «более» переносим, ​​поскольку он полностью автономен в /opt/google/chrome/ ,

Просто скопируйте этот каталог куда-нибудь еще, и вы сможете запустить его из любого места.

Я сделал скрипт bash, чтобы сделать Google Chrome переносимым в Ubuntu, Debian, Linux Mint или любом linux, поддерживающем файлы *.deb. Вы также можете запустить столько экземпляров Chrome, сколько пожелаете.

Вот ссылка и шаги. Это просто.

Google Chrome Portable Maker (GCPM) For Linux

GCPM is a tool for making Chrome portable. So, that Chrome can be moved anywhere easily and can be used privately. You can also install more than one Chrome in a Linux system, and their history would not clash.

GCPM requires dpkg-deb (dpkg-deb comes preinstalled in almost every linux OS).

Step (2) : Download latest Chrome *.deb package from https://www.google.com/chrome/

Step (3) : Give execution permission to GCPM. By Right clicking and going onto its properties and then clicking on «Allow executing file as program». Or you can do this by executing below command in the directory where GCPM exist.

Step (4) : Now move both GCPM file and the Chrome package ( let it be google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb ) to same folder.

Step (5) : Now launch terminal from the directory where these two files are placed and execute GCPM with the Chrome package as argument.

$ ./GCPM google-chrome-stable_current_amd64.deb

Step (6) : GCPM will ask you for password enter password for sudo . (The authentication is only required because chrome sandbox must be owned by root)

After completion you can launch chrome form ChromePortableGCPM folder.

Is there a portable version of Chrome for Ubuntu?

I’m looking for a portable version of Chrome (not Chromium) that I can work with on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I can only find Chromium or really outdated versions. Due to limitation on the machine I’m using, I cannot install Wine or utilize any admin features as I am on a standard account. Ideally, I would rather have an official version or at least one that exists in a repository that I can apt-get from. (I understand that apt-get requires sudo, I can use it for the initial vagrant setup, but that’s all. Hence why I would need non-admin methods)

Well, «portable» means almost nothing in the Linux world.
You can install any application anywhere on a system. If you do it carefully, in principle you can install any application and its dependencies on a USB stick with a ext partitioning and launch it on any Linux computer with the same architecture.

In particular, Chrome is already «more» portable, since it is entirely self-contained in /opt/google/chrome/ .

Just copy that directory somewhere else and you can launch it from anywhere.

It will still put its data in the home directory wherever you install it. The idea of a portable app means it keeps all the data in a subdirectory of where it is installed. I actually want a portable Chrome instance for occasional use of an extension I don’t trust and need rarely.

Fyi, symlinking the dir above back to /opt doesnt work «Too many levels of symbolic links». However running the google-chrome file in there does. You can also symlink the ~.config/google-chrome data dir to another place. There is an appimage available, but it is by a private party and not up to date, and so a bit sus. Maybe there is a way to run a hash check on it against the original, as you can unpack the appimages.

I made a bash script to make Google Chrome portable in Ubuntu, Debian , Linux Mint or any linux supporting *.deb files. You can also run as many instances of Chrome as you wish.

Here is the link and steps. It’s easy.

This should be the answer. It works. Not sure how much it changes the chrome-sandbox (it changes ownership to root and chmod 4755). This file seems to be the main problem with Portablizing Chrome because of symlinks to root file system. Read this link about how it protects users: computer.howstuffworks.com/google-chrome-browser7.htm. However, I like keeping my browser in a Veracrypt volume, so if the usb connection to that thumb drive is pulled or power lost, it automatically shuts the volume (maybe only one rare time of data loss). Very good security, but may lose this sandbox featur

btw, thank you so much!! I’ve been trying to do this ever since switching to Ubuntu several years ago. On Windows it was trivial. Be careful if you try using an exFAT format for the Veracrypt, I spent hours trying to fix a permissions error from tar (FAT has no permissions). EXT4 with Use on on Linux worked.
