vg crome is faster than ie7. but i have 2 queries in it.
1) when we open it it shows recently open websites can we manually erase some of them? i know erasing history erase them but i want to keep some of them
2) good flash player for it? i got from adobe it works but on wwe.com it requires pluigins after i install pluigins then it works good but at songs site it still says flash requires. (songs site means web sites where we listen songs online)

^^ Chrome does have problems with Flash and regarding to removing particular URL, its not known to me atm. :)

Love your Help sections for Google Chrome. It's almost like reading Chrome for Dummies, which you'd have to be, not to be able to understand it. LOL. I'm stilling learning about using kb shortcuts and am looking forward to learning more about Chrome. Keep up the good work!

Could someone please tell me how to get the HOMEPAGE button to appear in the Chrome toolbar and activate it so that it always brings me back to my home page from wherever I might be at the time?
I really would appreciate some guidance, folks. I had it up there for -just about- ever, but I made it go away somehow, and now I can't remember what to do to get it back. Duu-uuh.

^^ There is an option to show Home button in Toolbar in Chrome Settings. Please check the screenshot.

This article should have started by explaining how to access the Options, ie. by clicking on the spanner symbol to the right of the address (URL) bar.
What I hate about Chrome is that it's not possible to have the facilities menu (the one that usually appears along the top) on permanent display.design of Chrome either, with no option of having a toolbar displayed. In my opinion, Internet Explorer is better, more configurable than Chrome, which to me seems more of an idiot's browser.
hello
now how do u revirse this??

What if I accidentally removed the "Recently / Most visited sites" new tab. How do I get it back?
