CHROME
SET UP A CHROME-BASED DESKTOP
01 PIN ITEMS FROM SPLASH SCREEN
Open a new tab in Chrome and then click on apps in the top-left corner. In the bottom-right corner will be a link to the Chrome web store where you can add more apps.
02 STARTUP PAGES
From the menu bar, click Chrome>Preferences. Under ‘On Start-up’, check ‘Open a specific page or set of pages’. Then click ‘Set Pages’. These pages will automatically open up when you start Chrome.
03 SET UP YOUR BOOKMARKS
Add secondary sites to your bookmarks, which you may not want to open on startup but want quick access to. Click and drag the icon next to a site URL into the space below it to create a bookmark.
04 ADD SITES TO SPLASH SCREEN
You can save URLs by dragging and dropping onto your splash screen. Now restart Chrome. All previously opened pinned web apps will open and all saved startup pages will display.
