How to Hide the Extension Icon on Google Chrome

This guide explains how to hide the Extension Icon on Google Chrome, with clear steps, practical tips, and important checks before you begin.

Instructions for hiding the extension icon on Chrome

In the toolbar on the Chrome browser you will see all the extension icons that you are installing. To hide the widget icon you want, we just need to right-click the icon and select Hide in the Chrome menu .

Immediately that extension icon is no longer displayed in the toolbar on the browser. You do the same with the remaining utility icons to make the browser toolbar interface shorter.

So, where did the extension go or has it been deleted in Chrome? In fact, these icons are hidden in another menu only. Click on the 3 vertical dots icon and you will see all the chrome icon on Chrome. To display the icon again, click Show on the toolbar .

We can also resize the search bar to increase the area for the icons, by placing the mouse between the end of the address bar and the header of the icons . Then show the 2-way arrow so we can stretch or shrink as you like. However, the address bar will have a fixed size so you can not pull too narrow.
