I recently found out that I can disable Chrome "web security" using a command line argument, making JavaScript development easier. The issue is that I can't seem to run more than one "instance" of Chrome at a time. If I chrome.exe --disable-web-security
while Chrome is alread running, it just opens a new window within the running instance and ignores my command line arguments. I can close Chrome completely and relaunch it with the above command line argument, but then all my windows will be running without web security, which is a bad thing for general browser usage.
So to summarize the question: Is it possible to start an instance of Chrome with the --disable-web-security
flag while a normal Chrome instance is running?
Note: I suspect the answer may lay within the Chrome command line switches, but there are just... so many...
