"Trusted Sites" settings in Google Chrome

3

2

Is there equivalent of Internet Explorer Trusted Sites settings in Google Chrome?

Here is the issue:

When I download an excel file from a website using Chrome the file is marked as unsafe as seen on the security section in the properties window:

alt text

As the consequence the file is open in "Protected View" by Excel 2010.

When using Internet Explorer once the site is added to trusted sites that flag is not set and the files open normally. Can I achieve that behaviour in Chrome?

Thank you

You cant do it Google Chrome

This is has been a known issue with Google chrome, if i am right you cannot put anything as Trusted Sites in Google Chrome. But you can sure put SSL certificate to Trusted

An answer was added to the linked thread in 2011: "Basically Chrome is using the Windows Internet Options. Therefore you can go straight away to Control Panel in Windows - > Internet Option

Internet Options -> Privacy -> Sites - > Allow or Deny the sites." So it seems the the chrome is now using Windows settings directly. – kristof – 2013-07-24T14:07:38.130

You can do it!

(Click horizontal bars in upper right of Chrome to open settings menu) --> Settings --> Show Advanced Settings… --> Network --> Change Proxy Settings --> Security Tab.

There you will see the interface for modifying trusted sites (the same interface that you see in IE).

These settings are at the machine level, not the browser level. Setting them in one browser automatically applies the settings to other browsers.

After making changes, be sure to close all chrome tabs/browsers and re-open for changes to take effect.

1These settings don't seem to be used by firefox. Associated settings can be found and updated for firefox by typing about:config in the address bar. – randren – 2013-07-22T13:56:41.343
