Google Chrome users may be familiar with the “New Tab” page, which displays a list of recently opened tabs. However, if you’re looking for a quick way to open a new tab without having to search through the list, you can use the “Blank New Tab” quick-fix. To use this quick-fix, first open Google Chrome and click on the three lines in the top right corner of the browser window. From here, select “Settings.” Under “General,” click on “New Tab.” In the “New Tab” page that appears, select “Blank New Tab.” This will open a new tab without any of your current tabs being displayed. If you want to return to your previously opened tabs, simply click on one of these tabs and it will be loaded into your browser window. ..


Before

Unless you have a “speed dial/special page” extension installed you are stuck with the default new tab page in Chrome every single time you open a new tab. What if you do not like the default new tab page or “speed dial/special page” setups?

After

If you are someone who prefers to have a blank page as a new tab then you will love this extension. Once you have it installed you can click to your heart’s content on the “New Tab Button” and see nothing but blank goodness. Sometimes less is more…

Note: There are no options to bother with.

Conclusion

If you prefer a blank page when opening a new tab then the Blank New Tab extension is just what you have been waiting for.
