No winning ads were found in the native zone of the content. What is the purpose of the "Tab Groups" button? The "Tab Groups" button provides a dropdown menu with several management functions for tab groups. For example, you can quickly access a group or create a new empty group. Once a group is saved or pinned, the button will appear next to the bookmark bar. Combining tab strip groups with tab groups can change the entire browser into a chaotic mess, making it difficult to achieve the purpose of the feature. The "Tab Groups" button was not displayed until 2024, but tab groups themselves are not new. They have been enabled by default for several years. Using tab groups, you can organize tabs into labeled groups, which can help organize browsing. This feature is valuable for those who open dozens of tabs at once, but for those who don't have enough RAM or prefer to manually track tabs, the button can add unnecessary clutter to the browsing experience. How to Disable the "Tab Groups" Button in Chrome There are two simple methods to remove the Tab Groups button. Both methods allow you to keep the Tab Groups functionality, so you don't need to worry if you just want to remove the button. To remove it, right-click on any part of the bookmark bar and select "Disable Tab Groups." To confirm that it is disabled, check that the button has disappeared and that a checkmark symbol is not displayed next to the options. The "Tab Groups" button can always be re-enabled by following the reverse steps. You can use the Tab Groups feature as before. For example, to create a new group, click on an existing tab and select "Add Tab to New Group." A permanent removal method for the new "Tab Groups" button and related features is to open a new tab, enter "chrome://flags" in the address bar, and press Enter. Enter "Tab Groups Save UI Update" in the search bar, disable the option, and then restart Chrome. The "Tab Groups" button may not be completely useless, but the extra space it takes up on the important bookmark bar is often not worth the trade-off. You can easily manage tab groups within the tab strip and maintain all the features!
