There is a command-line switch for Chrome for setting Disk cache size and location.
Mine looks like this: --disk-cache-dir="C:\0\cache" --disk-cache-size=1073741824
If you want to have these settings all-the-time, you need to modify ALL your icons, and your registry.
I have modified all my icons. And my registry.
However, my registry reverts all the time. How can I protect my registry from this?
The registry modification looks like this (exported it from my registry; .reg file):
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ChromeHTML\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\ChromeHTML\shell\open\command] @="\"C:\Users\username\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe\" --disk-cache-dir=\"C:\0\cache\" --disk-cache-size=1073741824 -- \"%1\""
Well, it's got the same value in the LOCAL_MACHINE, but the change gets reverted for some reason ... somehow ... I don't know. :/ – Apache – 2011-07-21T12:18:32.813
@Shiki Another issue I'm noting is the lack of double backslashes inside the paths – A Dwarf – 2011-07-21T12:20:31.347
Nevermind that last comment. It's an export – A Dwarf – 2011-07-21T12:23:18.020
@Shiki. Being that the case, here comes my stupid question. Have you rebooted after changing the value? – A Dwarf – 2011-07-21T12:24:05.510
1No point in rebooting. Not at all. Computers are not magic, and "reboot" is no magic spell. – MSalters – 2011-07-21T12:32:16.117
