I switched to the fairly new Edge browser since it is chromium based and has better resource management and a better integration with Windows 10. Yet I am unable to get rid of the annoying pop up that got carried from Chrome. But at least, it was possible to get rid of the warning in Chrome by tweaking its
extension policies; The trick doesn't work with Edge.
If someone managed to get rid of the pop up, please share how.
I found a patcher that works - https://github.com/Ceiridge/Chrome-Developer-Mode-Extension-Warning-Patcher
I can confirm that the patcher is currently working.
As a side note the patcher has been updated 3 days ago and I did not have to tell it where to find the Edge installation folder or do any renaming of files, it worked great on auto install. New tabs, new windows, and new instances all come up with the warning disabled.
If you get Edge Dev or Canary instead of Edge Stable or Beta, the extension warning will go away. If you are already using Edge Stable copy %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\ to %userprofile%\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge Dev\User Data\ and everything will transfer over.
Get Edge Dev or Canary from https://www.microsoftedgeinsider.com/en-us/download/ (DO NOT get Beta, as that has the extension warning)
Open the file Preferences located at
C:\Users\Your_User\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Edge\User Data\Default\
search {"allow_chrome_webstore":true,
if not present, add "dev_mode_warning_snooze_end_time":"XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX = timestamp value
look like :
{"allow_chrome_webstore":true,"dev_mode_warning_snooze_end_time":"99999999999000000","developer_mode":true}
next pop up will appear ~16/11/4769
testing under Edge 96 Stable

VS Code has been trying to update for a few days now. It opens the innoupdater, but the updater never works.
Today I force stopped the updater from task manager and now my VS Code is gone (The VS Code icon is gone). It's showing the below error every time I try starting it.
windows cannot access the specified path you may not have permission
The innoupdater is also not working anymore, even if I reinstall. I am not sure How I can get my setting back.
You can safely reinstall vscode. Settings preserved even after uninstall in %USERPROFILE%\.vscode.
Also, you can use vscode built-in sync services or extension
Here's the problem. I get a message that pops up that says, "one or more extensions cannot be verified and have been disabled". I know a temporary fix to get these apps working again but the apps always break after so much time. What I do is go in my extensions for my Firefox profile (which is a JSON file) and I use Wordpad to change all the instances of appDisabled": true to appDisabled": false. I also change all the instances of signedState":-1 to signedState":2. The problem is that it keeps changing the false back to true and the 2's back to -1's. I am using Firefox version 56.0.2. Is there any permanent fix that can keep these changes under the current version that I am using? I am getting sick and tired of having to make these changes every day. Also, a couple of key add-ons that I use which are Classic Theme Restorer and unblock Origin keep getting disabling from this issue. I value these add-ons and I would love it if you knew any command prompt that I could put into Wordpad that would make Firefox stop trying to verify add-ons or whatever it does that causes Firefox to disable the add-ons. I welcome any other fix as well. I do want to keep my current version of Firefox and I know the Greasemonkey I use wouldn't work on later versions.
I already tried using Wordpad to change all instances of appDisabled": true to false and signedState":-1 to 2. It would work for a while and then everything reverted back to how it was.
...
appDisabled":true
...
signedState":-1
When appDisabled is true and signedState switches to -1, I get the message saying, "one or more extensions cannot be verified." It also disables the incompatible apps.
I am running Google Chrome Version 61.0.3163.100. I previously was running the Sense (Beta) extension version 0.9.4 until Google Chrome flagged it as malware in the extensions tab. The author of Sense has removed it from the Chrome store and it has been rolled into Kibana and renamed Console.
Problem is all the queries I wrote in the Sense console are not retrievable due to the extension being disabled. Previously, every time I opened the Sense (Beta) extension, all my previous queries would be saved and re-displayed each session. I would like to find the file location where Sense stored my queries for redisplay.
I am running Windows 10. I have tried locating my saved data by going to:
C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions
There is nothing identifiable I can find that resembles my old data. Does anyone know where I can retrieve it?
Please download this zip file from my dropbox and follow the instructions to install it. Please run the file through some anti-virus to protect yourself. Thanks to this link to help me export chrome extension.
List item Download and unzip attachment
Go to chrome://extensions
Delete the current Sense plugin installed
Check developer mode and click on "Load unpacked extension..." and select the unzipped folder.
It seems like in the case of the Sense extension, its only persistent data was kept in localStorage (relevant source).
Whether data recovery will be easy depends heavily on when you last used the extension.
If you last used the extension before Chrome 61 (~ September 2017), then you are in luck: the localStorage database is stored in SQLite 3 format.
You need to find the corresponding chrome-extension_[some_id]_0.localstorage file under Local Storage in your profile; it's an SQLite database. The ID doesn't seem to be the same as the extension ID.
You can load it in various tools, including sqliteonline.com for an online browser.
If you need data since update to Chrome 61, you're in a much tougher situation. Chrome 61 switched to LevelDB for localStorage backend, and I couldn't easily extract the data from it.
See this question for subtleties involved. The database itself is located at Local Storage/leveldb in your profile.
It seems like Chrome does not delete older SQLite-formatted data, so you can recover at least data from early September.
FWIW, the ID of the extension appears to have been lhjgkmllcaadmopgmanpapmpjgmfcfig
You can copy your Chrome profile to your ChromiumPortable profile then your Sense extension will be enabled in Chromium with all your history.
Chrome profile
C:\Users\xxxx\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default
Chromium Profile (rename existing profile to Default.bak)
C:\ChromiumPortable\Data\Chromium\UserData\Default
I had the same problem and the above fix got me my Sense history. I am using Chrome 63 and Chromium 65.
Update: Just updated to Chrome 79, this no longer allows me to load addon.
Just updated my Chrome to 69, It disabled my Sense (beta) addon with a "Malware" message, and I thought I lost all my data. The solution is pretty simple.
Go to chrome://flags/#extension-content-verification flag settings by setting as Enforce Strict, changing it to Bootstrap.
This let me load the extension, and all my saved queries were there.
To identify the extension you need to open chrome://extensions/ and check "Developer mode" (on the top right), then scroll down to the extension and you'll find the Extension's ID.
Folder under C:\Users\Admin\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions will be named with Extensions' IDs.
I am trying to use WatiN to do some screen scraping type of work. It runs on our site on a scheduler. I have no need to see the UI, I just need it to do the work. I can navigate the sites with no issue , but when trying to downlaod the files I have 2 problems.
Using IE 11 when it comes time to download , I get stuck on the open/save dialog that pops up. I have tried and tried and tried everything to have IE 11 auto download files, but to no avail. I edited the registry, and tried every option in the security tab, but no luck. I tried using SendKey.Sendwait("{TAB}"), to mimic what would need to be pressed , but I get "access denied" I think the "ui" is locked.
so I tried Firefox, firefox is easy to configure "automatic downlaods" .... but
FireFox wont even connect, I get: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it 127.0.0.1:9997 I installed the appropriate jjsh addon and install it globally for all users from the command line, but still no luck.
Any suggestions on how to disable that yellow bar that IE 11 puts at the bottom of the screen to annoy you , or what I might try with firefox? I believe configuring IE 8 to disable the yellow dialog bar is possible, but I am on a windows 8 machine , so I'm stuck with IE 11, or possibly 10.
You can keep trying to find a solution but that solution will probably break in a next release of IE (based on previous experience) to be able to finally solve and be future proof (if there's such a thing in development....) I would suggest to navigate to the page that has the link and get the HREF portion of it and once you have that link just do the download using other ways, like the following:
(this is just pure C#, not watin)
string downloadURL = "http://example.com/retrievePDF.jsp?id=XXXXX";
client.DownloadFile(downloadURL, #"C:\temp\" + fName + ".pdf");
you should replace the downloadURL with the value on the HREF of your download link and you will be able to find the file where you specify it.
Just have installed new firefox developer edition and one of the feautures is checking the website in another browsers remotely. So I opened my website and typed in firefox's new command line "ios" to test it on safary, but got error TypeError: response is null .
Did somebody already tried? Any ideas how to make this work? Thanks
There is a list of connection issues here and you can submit a new issue here if it is not listed.
I am using the Valence addon (the thing that makes connecting to ios and chrome possible) everyday without any problem, but I always go via the WebIDE. I never tried using the ios command. I'm not sure how much this command was tested recently, it might just be broken.
You should try using the WebIDE (which you can find in the Tools/Web Developer menu).
Once opened, you can select "Safari on iOS" from the runtime menu.
More information about this can be found on MDN.
I've filed the following issue on the Github repo. Feel free to comment on the issue to add more info if needed.
I've just released 0.2.3 of the Valence (Developer Tools Adapter) add-on. Once you get this update, the ios command should work as expected. You can check your current version on the about:addons page.
If you continue to have trouble, please file a new issue.
