I don’t know about you, but I find the download bar in Chrome very annoying. I don’t know why, but it’s just annoying pinned there at the bottom.
I’m talking about this one:
Despite many requests and complaints made by users – because I’m not the only one annoyed by it – Google still doesn’t want to implement a feature to disable the download bar in Chrome, or at least move it in another place somehow.
Luckily for us, there’s an add-on called Disable Download Bar.
All you have to do is install it and bye-bye download bar!
You can still easily access your downloaded files.
Just press CTRL-J (for Windows) or CMD-J (for macOS) on your keyboard and a Downloads tab will appear.
There, you can open your file or open the folder containing the file.
That’s a Wrap
I hope this guide helped you to disable the download bar in Chrome.
