If you’re a Chrome user, you can easily access your browsing history by pressing the three lines in the top left corner of your browser window. This will open a menu where you can select “History: Show All Browsing History,” “History: Keep My History,” or “History: Remove All Browsing History.” If you want to keep your browsing history, select “History: Keep My History.” If you want to remove all of your browsing history, select “History: Remove All Browsing History.”
Before
Usually there are two methods for viewing your browsing history in Chrome:
Using the “Tools Menu” to access the “History Page” Performing keyboard ninja magic with the “Ctrl + H” keyboard shortcut
But what if neither method really appeals to you? Perhaps a “Toolbar Button” is just what you have been looking for.
Installation
During the install process you will be asked to confirm installation of the extension. Click “Install” to finish adding your new “History Button” to Chrome.
As soon as you have finished installing the extension you will see your new “History Toolbar Button” and the following message.
There are no options for you to worry with… All that you have to do is just enjoy that single click access goodness.
After
With very minimal impact to your browser’s UI you can now easily access your browsing history.
Conclusion
While this may not be something that everyone will like, the History Button extension makes a very nice addition to Chrome for those prefer to use a toolbar button instead of menus or keyboard shortcuts.
