Why local chrome-urls like: chrome://downloads or chrome://apps doesn't work in headless mode?

Question

I am trying to visit chrome local urls. But it's not working. Does headless chrome support local urls?

Answer 1

I was looking for exactly this just today.

Found this:

Most chrome internal pages are not implemented in headless mode. This is a limitation of headless Chrome itself, and is not related to ChromeDriver. If you need a particular internal page available in headless Chrome, please file a feature request at https://crbug.com/.
