Resetting your Chrome browser takes just a few seconds.
We’ll go through the various methods that you can use to reset Google Chrome to its default settings and get rid of annoying issues. They are as follows:
Use the ‘Reset Settings’ Option on the Chrome Settings Page
Use the Easy Access Link to Open the ‘Reset Settings’ Box
Delete the ‘Default’ Folder in Chrome’s User Data Folder
Reset Chrome via the Flags Panel
Reinstall Your Google Chrome Browser
Method 1: Use the ‘Reset Settings’ Option on the Chrome Settings Page
Launch your Google Chrome browser.
Click the three vertical dots (the menu icon) in the top-right corner of your screen.
Click on Settings.
On the Settings page that opens, scroll down to the end of the page and click Advanced to expand the drop-down menu.
Scroll down once more to the bottom of the page. You’ll find the “Reset and clean up” section.
Click on “Restore settings to their original defaults.” You’ll then be presented with the ‘Reset Settings’ box, which says that your startup page, New Tab page, search engine, and pinned tabs will be reset, that all your extensions will be disabled, and that your temporary data, such as cookies, will be cleared. However, your bookmarks, history, and saved passwords will not be cleared.
If you so choose, you may mark the “Help make Chrome better by reporting the current settings” checkbox.
Click the ‘Reset settings’ button.
Restart your browser.
Method 2: Use the Easy Access Link to Open the ‘Reset Settings’ Box
This method is a faster way to reset your Chrome browser. It enables you to skip most of the steps in Method 1 and get to the Reset Settings box immediately. All you have to do is as follows:
Launch your Google Chrome browser.
Type the following link into the address bar of your Chrome browser and then press Enter on your keyboard: “chrome://settings/resetProfileSettings”
Tip: Alternatively, you can copy the above link, open a new tab on your browser, and then right-click on the address bar. Select the option that says, “Paste and go to chrome://settings/resetProfileSettings.”
Now, click the Reset Settings box to reset your Chrome browser.
I hope both these methods will be helpful!
