[br][br]Remember when all web browsers had a button that would redirect you back to a predetermined homepage? While Google prides itself on having a clutter-free interface, some people reminisce of the days when you could click a button and return to your homepage.[br][br][strong]How to Show or Hide the Home Button[/strong][br][br]Google Chrome hides the “Home” button from its taskbar by default to provide people with a clean interface. However, some people miss having a button that instantly brings you back to a specific webpage with the click of a button. The button isn’t gone forever, just follow these steps to get it back.[br][br]Fire up Chrome, click the menu icon, and then click on “Settings.” Alternatively, you can typechrome://settings/ into the Omnibox to go directly there.[br][br]
[br][br]Scroll down and under the Appearance heading, toggle “Show Home Button” on.[br][br]
[br][br]As soon as you toggle the Home button, it appears sandwiched between the Omnibox and the Refresh/Stop button.[br][br]
[br][br]The default setting will redirect you to the New Tab page, but clicking the + (plus) button to open a new tab already does that, which makes this a bit redundant.[br][br]To get the most out of the Home button, you can set it to direct to your favorite website by typing it into the field provided when you toggle it on.[br][br][br]
[br][br]Now, whenever you click the Home button, you are redirected to a specific URL instead of seeing the New Tab page.[br][br]If you want to hide the Home button, head back to chrome://settings and toggle “Show Home Button” to the off position.[br][br]
