How to Hide New Tab Shortcuts
When you open a new tab page in Chrome, you’ll see shortcuts to websites you frequently visit under the search bar. If you don’t want those to appear, your best bet is to hide them. Here’s how.
How to Delete Shortcuts
If you like having the shortcuts on the new tab page, you can remove any that you no longer want to show up. You can only delete one shortcut at a time.
Clear Your Browsing History
Another way to get rid of the new tab shortcuts is by clearing your browser history.
How to Add Custom Shortcuts
Chrome offers two options if you want to see shortcuts on the new tab page: My shortcuts and Most visited sites. The latter option is automatically updated based on your browser history. You can add as many custom shortcuts to your favorite websites to the new tab page as you want. To display your custom shortcuts, open a new tab, and click Customize Chrome > Shortcuts > My shortcuts.
