Collapsing (hiding) and showing all chrome extensions' icons simultaneously

Chrome extensions are a great way to enhance your browsing experience, but sometimes having too many icons cluttering your toolbar can be overwhelming. Luckily, there is a simple trick to collapse or hide all chrome extensions' icons simultaneously, giving you a cleaner and more organized browsing experience.

To collapse or hide all chrome extensions' icons at once, follow these easy steps:

1. Right-click on any extension icon in your Chrome toolbar. A context menu will appear.
2. In the context menu, hover over the "Manage extensions" option and click on it. This will open the Extensions page.
3. Alternatively, you can directly access the Extensions page by typing "chrome://extensions" in your Chrome address bar and hitting Enter.
4. On the Extensions page, you will see a list of all your installed extensions.
5. At the top-right corner of the Extensions page, you will find a toggle switch labeled "Extensions toolbar".
6. Click on the toggle switch to turn it off. This will collapse or hide all chrome extensions' icons simultaneously.

By collapsing or hiding all chrome extensions' icons, you can declutter your toolbar and focus on the essentials. However, keep in mind that even though the icons are hidden, the extensions themselves are still active and functional. You can access their features by clicking on the puzzle icon at the right end of the toolbar.

If you want to show all chrome extensions' icons again, simply follow the same steps mentioned above, but this time, toggle the switch to turn it on. This will display all the extension icons on your toolbar.

It's important to note that some extensions may have additional settings or options that allow you to control their icon behavior individually. So, if you want to customize the visibility of specific extensions, you can explore their settings within the Extensions page.

Collapsing or hiding all chrome extensions' icons simultaneously is a handy feature that can help you keep your browsing experience clean and organized. Give it a try and see how it improves your productivity!
