Google Chrome is 10 years old now. In its 10th anniversary, Google has introduced its material design user interface, which has given Google Chrome a completely new and shining user interface. Well, with a new and rejuvenated user interface, a lot of new features has also been introduced. A few of the features were already there, but most users were uninformed about the power the Chrome, maybe because most things were hidden. Two of the newly introduced features are the ability to add address and payment information, and the ability to change the background of a new tab a with a new wallpaper or something similar to that.

It thought it is possible to change the background of a new tab with some third-party Web Store apps or some themes, but most people don’t like that. At least I am one among them, who don’t like the thing. Well, now if you are having Google Chrome 69, it is pretty easy for you to change the background. If you haven’t changed any settings, Google Chrome should automatically update to version 69. Just in case you are not having Chrome 69, you can download it from this link.
