In this article you will see how to create a bookmark in Google Chrome that will quickly restart your browser whenever you wish.
Google Chrome, like most browsers, is a memory hog. If you open a few tabs in it, you will see your system slow down. The most recommended solution is to remove non-essential add-ons and restart your browser to free up RAM.
How can you restart Chrome? The classic and usual way you know. Close the browser and double-click the application icon on the desktop to start it again.
But Chrome offers a special URL that makes it easy to restart it. Go to the browser's address bar and type
chrome://restart and press Enter. And magically, the browser will restart.
Based on the above and if you frequently restart Chrome, it's a good idea to create a bookmark that will help you restart with one click. Here's how:
Press Ctrl + D (for Windows) or Cmd + D (for Mac) to enter the bookmark creation interface. Now click the Edit button on the bookmark screen that appears, enter chrome://restart in the URL input field, give it a name, for example “Restart” in the Name field, and click the Save button to create the bookmark.
That's it. If you want to dig deeper, type chrome://chrome-urls in your browser's address bar to see other internal Chrome pages that you can reach via special URLs.
