Quickest automated way to continuously check for updates

Commentor Germaine told us about a fast way to check for the latest updates without needing to be in dev mode:

  • Go to chrome://settings/about in the browser
  • Press CTRL+SHIFT+J on the keyboard
  • Paste in setInterval(function(){chrome. send('CheckNow');},5000)
  • Press enter. Watch as Chrome checks for updates itself every 5 seconds
