In Chromium-based browsers, when is the "http_allowed" key in Preferences updated?


I'm looking at the Preferences file in Chromium browsers data, and I'm trying to understand some of the entries I see there. My question is regarding the "http_allowed" key, and what causes it to be updated? I've been trying to look for answers online, but I haven't found anything, even in the documentation.

Hoping theres some Chromium-geniuses out there that can help!


Solution

  • I made some tests with Edge browser and I found that it will add a record of the website in "http_allowed" after you visit HTTP-only website. That's when "http_allowed" key in Preferences updated.
