To run portable Chrome using chrome.exe in \App\Chrome-bin

For portable Chrome, if you execute the \App\Chrome-bin\chrome.exe directly, you may not able to start Chrome and having a file "debug.log" stating that Chrome "Could not get Chrome DLL version.".

To handle this issue, you need to do the following:
  • Copy the chrome.exe to \App\Chrome-bin\15.0.874.120\ (depends on the Chrome version) and use the chrome.exe in this path instead
  • Specify the --User-Data-Dir and --Enable-Extension parameters

For example:
  • chrome.exe --User-Data-Dir="D:\ChromePortable\Data\profile" --Enable-Extensions

Some more parameters for reference:
  • Private browsing mode:
      --incognito
  • Read local files (e.g. local XML, XSL, etc):
      --allow-file-access-from-files
