All Google Chrome keyboard shortcuts on PC

Google Chrome keyboard shortcuts perform tasks in the browser by pressing the combination of each shortcut, without the need to perform multiple steps with the mouse.

These Chrome shortcuts are already enabled by default in Google’s browser and are available as soon as the tool is downloaded to your computer.

Common keyboard shortcuts cover tasks such as minimizing windows, opening or closing tabs, reloading the page, switching tabs, or going back a page. But the browser also offers over 80 other shortcuts to make it easier for the user to use.

Below, check out all the keyboard shortcuts for Google Chrome for PC (Windows, Linux and Mac).
