i'm not aware of a possibility in chrome(-ium) to do that besides when you are writing extensions for the browser.

i would rather check the requirements and try to find a better solution then trying to write a file to the fs. you cannot rely on this since the user always can forbid to do that - and that is for good reasons. if cookies are to small for you you might even try the HTML 5 local storage object.

kind regards
