Can I make Google Chrome allow fullscreen by default? [duplicate]

Solution 1:

EDIT: I found out the reason Chrome prompts is because this is a security issue where sites could possibly impersonate a browser environment.

I got it to work on my machine by using Google's host pattern matching.

1. Open Chrome's Content extensions paste this into an address bar: chrome://settings/contentExceptions#fullscreen
2. Edit an item to be *://*/* and save (on my machine it disappeared from the list but worked the way I wanted.) (per @Jaex comment below try just * I used both, but I tried the * first and assumed it didn't work when it disappeared from my list.)

Thats it, it worked immediately for me.

Solution 2:

If you are on windows just edit your Chrome shortcut properties:

Where it says target:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

add --kiosk to the end

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --kiosk

It will now run in full screen mode each time you start it.
