Today’s featured tech tip….
How to quickly find a web page you visited in the recent past
Do you ever find yourself wanting to go back and visit a web page you visited in the recent past only to realize you can’t remember the name of the article, or even which website it was on?
Well, here’s an easy way to quickly find a page you recently viewed with your Chrome browser:
1 – Right-click on the Back button, then click Show Full History.
Note: You might need to quickly visit another page in the browser to prompt the “Show Full History” link to appear.
2 – Type a word or phrase you remember from the article into the Search box.
For example, if you remember reading an article about Independence Day you would type those words into the search box. If they are contained anywhere in that article’s Title you’ll be able to go right to it.
3 – Find the link you’re looking for in the list of search results, then click on that link to revisit the page.
