问题
In this new instance of Chrome, all of my accounts are signed out and I have to relog in. In the task bar I can see the original Chrome and I can open them side by side.
The old instance of Chrome:
- All my apps
- Accounts signed in
The new Live Preview instance of Chrome:
- I dont have any of my apps
- No accounts signed in
- Essentially it is as if I am using Chrome for the first time
What I am asking is, is it safe to sign into my accounts on this new instance of Chrome?

The Chrome profile that Brackets launches for Live Preview has the Chrome Remote Debugging API enabled. There are two reasons Brackets uses a separate profile for this:
- Remote Debugging is off by default, and enabling it requires re-launching Chrome. Using a separate profile means your existing browsing session doesn't have to be restarted, which would be disruptive if you have lots of tabs open.
- It reduces security slightly -- other processes on your local machine could use the Remote Debugging API to monitor / interfere with other browsing you do in this Chrome window. (The API is not exposed to the network, so if you trust your computer to be malware-free, this is less of a concern).
If you don't like having to open a separate Chrome window, you can check File > Enable Experimental Live Preview to try out a new Live Preview implementation that doesn't require the Remote Debugging API, and thus doesn't launch a new copy of Chrome. You can't use this option if your project has a custom server URL set, though.
