There is no about:config at the moment.

the feature request on chromium was closed on July 22nd with the status WontFix so you'll probably have to keep bumping the original feature request or open a new request at http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues with additional ideas or features than the previous.

From Google Support, Chrome Help, on July 10, 2009.

Question: Is there an about:config

No, currently there is no about:config page...
But you can vote for
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=16362
and hope it will get implemented sometimes.

Yes, and no. If by about:config, you mean "special page that lets you configure secret stuff, then it's there, and you can access it through about:flags.

Nice. And not mentioned on Google's old blog post. – Arjan Jan 30 '11 at 12:30
If you want the complete list of about: pages available on Chrome, try about:about. – divegeek Dec 18 '11 at 16:42

There's no about:config, but if you want to play with local urls you can try putting chrome://newtab in the address bar.

There is now chrome://settings in Chrome dev(unstable), someday it will be in beta and then in stable.

It is not a table, as about:config in Firefox, it's tabbed, with tree structure. Every setting page have URI (chrome://settings/advanced) and even individual options could be linked - for now only using search and clicking on section of interest (chrome://settings/search#sync). Oddly enough, tree structure is not represented in URI (chrome://settings/cookies)

I will add screenshots if anyone is interested.

Use About:About to access all hidden pages in Chrome. – Moab Mar 22 '11 at 14:42
