-Chromium can be customized to perform certain behaviors during its first run.
-The key to it is a special file named ***master_preferences*** that must exist
-before chrome first run in the same folder as the chrome.exe binary.
-
-The master_preferences file is a text file of JSON format, which needs to
-contain some specific name/value pairs. A prototypical file is shown here (for a
-more exhaustive list consult the [source
-code](http://src.chromium.org/viewvc/chrome/trunk/src/chrome/installer/util/master_preferences.h?view=markup)
-directly):
-
-{
-
-"homepage" : "http://www.chromium.org",
-
-"homepage_is_newtabpage" : false,
-
-"distribution": {
-
-"create_all_shortcuts": true,
-
-"import_history": false,
-
-"import_bookmarks": false,
-
-"import_home_page": false,
-
-"import_search_engine": false,
-
-"do_not_launch_chrome": false
-

-

-

-There is one dictionary, called "distribution" and one list, called
-"first_run_tabs". Setting the home page behavior is done outside of these.
-
-The home page settings control the following behaviors:
-
-* homepage: when set, this is the URL opened as the home page (see
- setting below.)
-* homepage_is_newtabpage: if set to false, clicking the 'home' button
- or taking actions that send the user 'home' will open the home page
- instead of the new tab page.
-
-The distribution dictionary controls the following behaviors:
-
-* create_all_shortcuts: if set to true, the desktop, quick-launch and
- start menu shortcuts are created without user intervention.
-* import_history: if set to true it automatically imports the browser
- history from the current default browser.
-* import_bookmarks: if set to true it automatically imports the user's
- bookmarks from the current default browser.
-* import_home_page: if set to true it automatically imports the user's
- home page from the current default browser.
-* import_search_engine: if set to true it automatically imports the
- user's search engine setting from the current default browser.
-* do_not_launch_chrome: if set to true, per-user Chromium will not
- automatically launch after it is installed (per-machine Chromium
- never auto-launches after install).
-
-The first_run_tabs list controls the set of urls that are displayed in chromium
-when first run. If you want the default behavior the entire section can be
-removed. Each entry can be a standard url or you can use these special names to
-display special tabs:
-
-* "http://welcome_page" : shows the default welcome page for the
- current locale.
-* "http://new_tab_page" : shows the new tab page. Which contains the
- thumbnails of the favorite pages.
