Running script with Chrome
.everyoneloves__top-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__mid-leaderboard:empty,.everyoneloves__bot-mid-leaderboard:empty{ height:90px;width:728px;box-sizing:border-box;
}
I'd like to run the script below whenever I run Chrome. The script clears various Chrome settings, and I'd like the setting to be cleared whenever I run Chrome. Is this possible?
Thanks,
Ryan

My suggestion is to run your sequence of commands before the Chrome browser launches and after it exits, so you can be assured your systems cleaned if Chrome crashes.
Right click on an empty spot on your Desktop, and choose New then Text Document which will take you to Notepad (unless you changed your default text editor). Then, type in these commands:
set ChromeDataDir=C:UsersRyanAppDataLocalGoogleChromeUser DataDefault
set ChromeCache=%ChromeDataDir%Cache
del /q /s /f "%ChromeCache%*.*"
del /q /f "%ChromeDataDir%*Cookies*.*"
del /q /f "%ChromeDataDir%*History*.*"
chrome
timeout 10 /nobreak
del /q /s /f "%ChromeCache%*.*"
del /q /f "%ChromeDataDir%*Cookies*.*"
del /q /f "%ChromeDataDir%*History*.*"
Why the TIMEOUT after Chrome exits? Well, Chrome's doing a lot when it closes, so giving it 10 seconds to finish everything helps make sure it's really closed before the cache, cookies, and history is cleared.
Save and close the file, then right-click it, and rename it to CLEANCHROME.BAT (or anything ending in .BAT).

Changed the script with a timeout and to start Chrome at the end with the start command. Any ideas why the script wouldn't be deleting my history? I Google searched the string "blah blah blah", closed Chrome, ran the script to start it again. This should have earased my history/cookies/cache, but when I typed "b" into the search my blah blah blah string came up. Any ideas there?

Sorry, don't know why %ChromeDataDir% isn't where your cache is.

Jan 30 at 2:35
That is where my cache is, it deletes the cache fine. But there must be some other history or cache file somewhere that keeps a record. I don't even use Chrome so I'm not sure why I'm doing all this, lol. Thanks for the help anyway.
