Hi...

Thank you for making this.

However, will it function normally even though Puppy operates in root? More recent versions of Chrome don't allow this.

Regards...

i have already adapted it to work as root

you only have to modify the file
(already done in the pet)

/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome

  exec -a "$0" "$HERE/chrome" "$@"

to

  exec -a "$0" "$HERE/chrome" \
    --user-data-dir=$HOME/.config/google-chrome "$@"
