How to customize and change Chrome Color and Theme

Chrome Color Theme

On a computer, the most popular application or software is the browser. If you like to customize Windows, I'm sure you would like to do the same with the browser. If you use Google Chrome, Here's how to customize and change the browser's color and theme.

Change the color and theme of chrome

The best part about Chrome personalization is that you do not need to install a theme or extension from anywhere. The feature is built into Chrome and if you like colors, I'm sure you'll like it.

  1. Start Chrome and go to an empty tab.
  2. At the bottom right, find a button that says Customize. Click on it.
  3. He will open Customize this page window, and it will offer three options
    • Color and theme
    • shortcuts
    • and context
  4. Make the changes and you will have a new look on your browser.

Let's take a closer look at how to use these options.

1) Change the color and theme in Chrome

<img class = "ezlazyload aligncenter full-size wp-image-196084″ alt=”Chrome color theme” width=”600″ height=”412″ sizes=”(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px” src=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Chrome-Color-Theme.png” srcset=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Chrome-Color-Theme.png 600w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Chrome-Color-Theme-400×275.png 400w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Chrome-Color-Theme-150×103.png 150w”/>

Chrome offers twenty-four contrasting color schemes that you can apply to the browser. One has a lighter shade than the other, which makes the theme useful for navigation. You can choose any of them and click the Done button.

The Color and Theme section also lets you create a theme of your choice. Click on the first one, which has a pen icon, and then select a color of your choice. Chrome automatically creates a clear, dark version of the tone for this theme.

2) Show, hide and customize shortcuts

<img class = "ezlazyload aligncenter full-size wp-image-196085″ alt=”Customize the links on the home page” width=”600″ height=”399″ sizes=”(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px” src=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Customize-Home-Page-Links.png” srcset=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Customize-Home-Page-Links.png 600w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Customize-Home-Page-Links-400×266.png 400w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Customize-Home-Page-Links-150×100.png 150w”/>

Shortcuts are links available on the new tab or the home page. These are usually the most visited pages, but you can choose what is displayed by manually configuring the links. Switch to Shortcuts and check the box to display the most visited page or the one you chose. Some people want the links of the content visited from the start, and it is best to hide them

3) Simple background image or refresh daily

<img class = "ezlazyload aligncenter full-size wp-image-196086″ alt=”Change the wallpaper in Chrome” width=”600″ height=”401″ sizes=”(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px” src=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Change-Wallpaper-in-Chrome.png” srcset=”https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Change-Wallpaper-in-Chrome.png 600w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Change-Wallpaper-in-Chrome-400×267.png 400w, https://thewindowsclub.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/11/Change-Wallpaper-in-Chrome-150×100.png 150w”/>

Although I'm not a big fan of Chrome or any other browser, but if you want to get an image that can make you smile, do not hesitate to use this feature. You can choose to upload your own image or use the one available in the Chrome Gallery.

Select the one you like, and this will open a gallery of similar images. I would suggest activating the "Refresh Daily" to get a new screen background each time.

It is interesting to note that these themes are not new. They are available in the Themes section of the Chrome Store and any Chrome user can download and apply them. Google now offers them in the browser. These themes also work on the new Edge.

That said, if that's not enough, you can always check out our collection of hand-picked Google Chrome themes from third-party developers. I would like Chrome to sync with the Windows color theme and make things transparent.

You should experiment and find the best combination of background image, links and colors that fits your tastes.
