You use the internet and want to share a link. How do you copy the link at the top? I use Control L to highlight the URL and Control C to copy. However, you can customize Chrome to make this even easier.
Customize Chrome
The faster way to copy the link to a website (URL) is to click the copy link button. However, you need to turn this on. In the upper right of the Chrome toolbar if you don’t see a link icon, here are the steps to follow.
Start with the 3 Dots Menu
In the very upper right of Google Chrome are 3 dots. Click on this.
- More tools
- Customize Chrome
Selecting Customize Chrome opens up a sidebar with the option to select “Toolbar.”
Toggle Copy Link
There is a list of toggles. Toggle ON “Copy Link.”
Now you should see the link icon in your toolbar of Chrome.
Click to Copy URL
It’s so easy. When you are on a website you want to copy the link to, click on the icon. The link is automatically copied to your clipboard. Control V paste it anywhere!
