[Thong LeTrung]

hi , , "Use hardware acceleration when available " only exists on latest version of chrome. I know that we can go to the Chrome menu > Settings > Show advanced settings > "System" > unselect "Use hardware acceleration when available" . However I don't know path of file or path of registry so I can't change value of "Use hardware acceleration when available " How to disable "Use hardware acceleration when available" using C++ . Thanks ThongLT

This setting is stored in a file called Local State. The file is available in the folder C:\Users\\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data The contents of this file are in JSON format. There is a section as follows -

"hardware_acceleration_mode": {
"enabled": true
}

Changing the value between true and false toggles this setting. Make sure that chrome is not running when changing this value.
