1. Fixed the Windows Chrome launch bug - Modified chrome.py to skip the process exit check on Windows, since Chrome's
launcher always exits immediately after spawning background processes.
2. Changed to a non-default user data directory - Used C:\Users\j.spoerer\ChromeBetaMCP instead of the default Chrome
Beta directory to avoid remote debugging restrictions.
3. Installed extensions - Copied extensions to the new profile.
4. Successfully tested - Chrome Beta is now running and can navigate to websites.
Current Configuration:
- Browser: Chrome Beta 142.0.7444.34
- User Data Dir: C:\Users\j.spoerer\ChromeBetaMCP
- Profile: Default
- Debug Port: 9225
- Extensions: Enabled
- Headless: No (headed mode)
The MCP browser is now ready for use! You can scrape websites with Chrome Beta and extensions will be available as needed.
