Google Chrome ships with a set of internal URLs that you can access for various purposes. From displaying internal information to downloads, looking up crashes or the browser’s experimental features that you can enable to test them out, there is something available for anyone here.
But which pages are available, and what purpose do they serve? The first thing that you need to know is that all Chrome URLs begin with chrome:// followed by one or multiple words afterwards. Multiple words are always hyphenated and URLs never include spaces or special chars in them.
You can display the list of Chrome URLs by loading chrome://about in the browser. While that gives you a list of available pages, it won’t provide you with information on what purpose they serve. You can obviously load them one by one to find out, or use the following list as a guide.
Not all pages are useful to non-developers, but some let you access features that you would not be able to access otherwise. If you access an internal page regularly, you may want to bookmark it in the browser to speed that process up. Please note that pages come and go, and that some of the pages may be removed or altered in upcoming versions of the browser.
