The Google Chrome web browser from the developer of the famous Google search engine is deservedly popular and respected among many users. During its development, the market was carefully analyzed, and many of the wishes of the Internet community were taken into account and implemented.
It is quite understandable that everything possible was done so that users do not have the question “How to use Google?”. One of the tasks is to ensure the operation of the software product “out of the box”. In part, this was possible, and the need to understand how to use Google most often appears in quite specific situations. But still, if there is a question, then there must be an answer. In this paper, we will highlight some key features of the browser that developers have not focused on.
So, before you start figuring out how to use Google Chrome, the browser needs to be downloaded and installed on your computer. Although now only the lazy owner of the site does not offer to download Google Chrome, but still it is recommended to give preference to the developer's site (Google). This guarantees not only the absence of embedded virus programs, but also the selection of the latest stable version.
Suppose the program is downloaded and installed. After starting, the user sees on the screen an almost standard browser window: the address bar at the top and the main screen. An attentive user will pay attention to the fact that if in alternative solutions there is always a small window next to the address bar that is tied to a search engine, then Google does not have this chrome. Sometimes it scares and makes you look for the answer to the question of how to use Google. In fact, everything is explained simply: Chrome is the first browser that was initially developed with a high degree of integration into the search engine (of course, Google, although you can choose it). Now, to search for the necessary information, we type the desired keywords in the address bar itself. At the bottom of the screen, links to recently visited pages are displayed, which is quite convenient, because searching on them is faster than calling the history in Opera or Firefox. That's so simple: the question of how to use Google should not arise. The only condition: use only stable versions, and leave the various “Devs” to the experimenters.
The browser settings section is much more interesting. Here you can not do without advice on how to configure Google. To get into them, you need to click on the wrench icon in the upper right corner of the browser window and select "Settings".
The Start Group option is a familiar to many start page with advanced functionality. For fans of the express panel, you can download the Speed Dial extension. When you install it, the initial group will be adjusted.
Appearance allows you to customize the theme. Like many things in this minimalistic browser, it will have to be downloaded separately (though in automatic mode). When paying for megabyte traffic, it is better to carefully weigh the appropriateness of downloading a new topic.
In the "Search" section, you can select a non-Google system and set it by default. As a result, when typing words in the address bar, the search will be performed using it.
A little lower, you can make Google the default browser on Google.
By allowing the display of additional parameters, it becomes possible to specify a folder for downloading files (it is recommended to do this); enable spellcheck (refuse, because initially the browser "does not know" anything); Assign a proxy server. Please note that Google Chrome uses proxy settings from Internet Explorer (unlike the popular Opera and Firefox).
Also in the general settings menu it is useful to select "Extensions" in the "Tools" link. Excess should be disabled. In this window, the Get More Extension link, which sends Google to the extension database, is of particular interest. Be sure to visit. Without updates for their browser, rarely anyone leaves.
