How to Apply Some Tips and Tricks on Google Chrome
Google Chrome is a feature-rich browser, and there are several tricks and tips to enhance your browsing experience. Here are some cool Google Chrome tricks:
1. Search From the Address Bar:
You can use the address bar as a search bar. Just type your search query directly into the address bar and press Enter.
2. Use Omnibox Shortcuts:
Use various shortcuts in the address bar to perform specific actions, such as "site:" to search within a specific site, "define:" to get a quick definition, and "weather:" to check the weather.
3. Pin Tabs:
Right-click on a tab and select "Pin Tab" to reduce the tab size and keep frequently used tabs easily accessible.
4. Drag Multiple Tabs:
Hold down the Shift key and click on multiple tabs to select them. You can then drag them as a group.
5. Task Manager:
Access Chrome's built-in Task Manager by pressing Shift + Esc. It shows you how much memory and CPU usage each tab and extension is using.
6. Reopen Closed Tabs:
Did you accidentally close a tab? Press Ctrl + Shift + T (Windows/Linux) or Command + Shift + T (Mac) to reopen the most recently closed tab.
7. Create Desktop Shortcuts for Websites:
Visit a website, click on the three dots in the top-right, go to "More tools," and select "Create shortcut." This will create a desktop shortcut to the website.
8. Use Chrome Flags:
Type "chrome://flags/" in the address bar to access experimental features and settings. Be cautious, as these features are not always stable.
9. Custom Search Engines:
In Chrome settings, under "Search engine," you can add custom search engines. Assign a keyword, and you can quickly search on that site by typing the keyword followed by your search query in the address bar.
10. Mouse Gestures:
Install a Chrome extension like "Chrome Gesture" to enable mouse gestures for easier navigation. You can perform actions like opening a new tab or going back with simple mouse movements.
11. Scroll Through Tabs:
Hover over the tab bar and use your scroll wheel to cycle through open tabs.
12. Taskbar Jumplist (Windows):
- Right-click on the Chrome icon in the taskbar to access a jumplist with your most visited sites and recently closed tabs.
