Google Chrome Deployment

Hi

 

Is there anyway to block the chrome://settings page?

 

I have put it in the chrome GPO, even tried impero to block the page none work

 

Any ideas?

I was able to block it using these settings:

I opened the Chrome Settings page and used the Impero console to pick off the offending process and block it. It closes all of the open Chrome tabs and not just the Settings tab [if there are more open] Good deterrent though?

 

HTH.

Hi Dave

 

That worked brilliantly! Thanks a lot

 

Another question for you, how do you get rid of the chrome-signin thing at the start?

I use the Group Policy Templates for Google Chrome to block the chrome-signin thing

 

Might be worth looking at

We don't allow our students to use Chrome and so we have not blocked Google Chrome sign in. Perhaps the answer posted by @dylanduffy will help.

Hi Scott

 

I have disabled it in the GPO, not luck though

You can use the computer configuration policy to block this:

 

Block access to a list of URLs

chrome://*

chrome://

chrome://settings/

The chrome://settings/ one is ok, but remember you'll probably need things like chrome://print/

Rather than block chrome:// URLs, why not restrict individual settings within chrome://settings? There are policies for those within the Chrome ADMX.
