Every Google Chrome user should click this button now

06 de mayo de 2022 Hi-network.com

I know that a lot of you use Google Chrome. Despite its faults -- I'm talking about how it devours RAM -- it's a good browser with a great ecosystem of extensions.

And it's pretty secure.

But you can do your bit to make it more secure.

Like clicking theSafety checkbutton.

So, where's theSafety checkbutton? Theeasiest way to find it is to type this into your address bar and hit enter:

chrome://settings/safetyCheck

Alternatively, you can go intoSettingsand click onSecurity and Privacyand then click on Check nowon the right-hand side underSafety Check.

Google Chrome Safety check

The Safety checkbutton is right there. Clicking on it does four things:

  • Checks for Google Chrome updates
  • Checks if any of your stored passwords have been compromised
  • Checks if Safe Browsing is enabled, and gives you a link to tweak these settings
  • Checks for harmful extensions (not a bad idea given the latest debacle with The Great Suspender)

Running Google Chrome Safety check

If you want more protection, you can enableEnhances protectionunderSafe Browsing, and that will give you much greater security, but it does involve consenting to having your browsing data sent to Google.

Carrying out aSafety checkis quick, and gives you additional piece of mind.

Do it now.
