[MacTUG] How to Turn Off the ‘Hold Command-Q to Quit’ Warning in Chrome for macOS

[Keith Peck]

Hi Everyone,
Mac users who like the Chrome browser may have recently noticed (late October) that the up to date version of Chrome for macOS now prompts you with an on-screen-message that you must ‘Hold Command-Q to Quit’.

Apparently the change was made to help avoid shutting down web apps that could rely on processes built into Chrome. I don’t use web apps so I find this change annoying.

To disable this feature, with Chrome for macOS running…

  *   Click on “Chrome” on the application menu at the upper-left of your display.
  *   Click the “Warn Before Quitting” option so that it is no longer checked.
