Locally Stored Favicons #5

I have modified the gmail favicon to have some added initials to differentiate between work/personal. I am using the follow to "attempt" to use a locally store file but it doesn't seem to work. The title changes so I know that works but the icon stays the same.

Do you have any thoughts on this?

{
    "twitter.com": {
        "title": "I'm working hard!",
        "icon": "file:///C:/Program%20Files%20(x86)/Google/Chrome/Tab-Modifier/faviconARC.ico"
    }
}

Hi @Zanzacar,

It seems to be a known issue with Chrome. I tried myself and I can reproduce this behavior.

You could find a way to upload your icon somewhere where the file is displayable.

Quick note to say that this case is listed in the README with few workarounds.
