However, extensions and plugins help the websites identify you even better. If you’re a privacy conscious user, it’s best to avoid plugins and extensions. Instead, you can try the other steps given here. Personally I would like to remove the feature.

A menu will appear in the top right corner. A window will appear to confirm your selection. Hover over a shortcut and trippy contacts click the three-dot menu icon. Arguably removing the thumbnail is easiest but you do have the option to change it.

Clearing your browsing history will delete all the shortcuts on the new tab page, if you’ve enabled Most visited sites. In that case, new ones will appear as you surf the web. However, if you’ve select My shortcuts then removing the history will not delete those shortcuts. Google Chrome comprises 40% of the marketplace because of its variety in features.

While using Chrome, start a new tab and go to the settings page by selecting More tools, then Clear Browsing Data from the upper-right corner. See Remove your personal information from Googleinstead. For quick removal, use the Removals toolto remove images hosted on your site from Google’s search results within hours.

Instead of full-sized photographs, Google uses thumbnails in its image search. Users are shown a large number of photos at the same time. You can click on Undo to restore that thumbnail or click on Restore Default Thumbnails to change everything back to default.

Many things might cause your system’s settings to alter, which could be one of them. Chrome will have automatically added the website’s address as a new thumbnail for the homepage as soon as you entered the site. Now just close the browser and restart it again.

To close one tab or to select which tabs to close, touch the X in the top right corner of each tab you wish to close. The extension installs a button to the right of Chrome’s URL bar. Click it and you can set the number of maximum tabs allowed; the default is 20. While you can always click on the tiny X to close individual tabs on Chrome, why do that when you can simply press Ctrl + W instead?

You should be aware that the new tabs you open with this extension will contain ads, and your data might be collected to show more relevant ads. Leoh New Tab is the highest-rated extension you’ll find in the Store at the moment. It has an average rating of 4.7 stars and is used by more than 50,000 users. My most frequented include my bank and credit card sites, where you can actually see my balances on the thumbnails. I installed “Speed Dial 2” from the chrome web store instead. It gives me a configurable Speed Dial instead of the auto-generated thumbs.

See the Google Search help documentation on how to remove an image from search results. By specifying Googlebot-Image as the User-agent, the images will be excluded from Google Images.
