Dont like Chrome New Menus? Here is how to Disable Them

Filled under:


How to Disable new white context menus in Chrome 26

1. Right click on Chrome shortcut on desktop, select Properties
2. Hit the Shortcut tab, now in Target field at the end of “C:\Program Files\Google\Chrome\Application\chrome.exe” after space add “–disable-new-menu-style” without quotes. (add two hyphens before disable).
adding command line swith to Chrome executable path thumb Don’t like Chrome’s New Menus? Here is how to Disable Them
3. Click Apply and OK to add the change.
4. Now launch Chrome browser from the shortcut, you can see old menu style for both Chrome settings menu and context menu.
At present there is no other way than the procedure mentioned above to revert back to old  menus in Chrome. IMO there is no way Google will drop them unless gets huge criticism and feedback on it from users.
Has the workaround mentioned above worked for you? do you think Google will ditch this UI style for menus and brings old styled context menus back? share your thoughts with us in comments.
