Prevent Tabs from Freezing or Crashing in Chrome and Edge While Running Worker

When using the Worker feature on ViewGrip, it is essential that the Chrome browser continues running tasks without interruption.

Many users have reported that Chrome sometimes freezes or stops processing after some time.
This happens because Chrome is designed to automatically reduce activity for inactive windows (a feature called "Occlusion").

Since the Chrome flag to disable occlusion has been removed, the best solution is to modify the Chrome shortcut to permanently disable these background restrictions.

Follow this simple guide to ensure Chrome keeps running smoothly while using the ViewGrip Worker feature:

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Locate the Chrome Shortcut

Find the shortcut for Google Chrome on your Desktop or Start Menu.

Tip:
If you do not have a shortcut yet, you can create one by navigating to
C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe,
right-clicking on chrome.exe, and selecting Send to → Desktop (create shortcut).

2. Open Shortcut Properties

• Right-click on the Chrome shortcut.
• Select Properties from the menu.

3. Modify the Target Field

In the Shortcut tab, locate the Target field.
You will see something like:

"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe"

Now, add the following flags after the closing quotation mark, with a space before them:

"C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe" --disable-backgrounding-occluded-windows --disable-renderer-backgrounding --disable-background-timer-throttling --disable-occlusion-tracking

Important:

• Do not delete anything from the original path.
• Make sure there is a space between the end quote (") and the flags.

4. Apply and Save

• Click Apply.
• Click OK.

Your Chrome shortcut is now updated.

5. Launch Chrome Using the Updated Shortcut

From now on, always launch Chrome using this shortcut.
Chrome will now continue running ViewGrip Worker tasks — including video plays and automated activities — without freezing or stopping, even if minimized, hidden, or accessed remotely through RDP.

Final Notes

This method is highly recommended for users of ViewGrip's Worker feature who need Chrome to continuously perform tasks without interruption.

By following these steps, you can maximize your earnings and ensure the Worker runs as smoothly and efficiently as possible.
