There are many privacy settings that are hidden in Chrome that you probably never knew were there. So we&#8217;re going to show you have to find them and tell you about some of the settings you can change.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>First let&#8217;s talk about how to get there.<\/li>\n<li>Open Chrome<\/li>\n<li>Click on the Settings Icon (the little box of three horizontal lines in the top right corner)<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;Settings&#8221;<\/li>\n<li>Scroll all the way down to the bottom<\/li>\n<li>Click &#8220;Show advanced settings&#8221;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>OK now &#8230;click on &#8220;Content Settings&#8221; under Privacy (the first item you&#8217;ll see in Advanced Setting):<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/chromepriv.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"352\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Under Content settings you&#8217;ll see you have a lot of options &#8211; for instance if you want Chrome to delete your local Chrome cache after you close Chrome, tick the circle next to &#8220;Keep local data only until you quit your browser&#8221; &#8211; keep in mind if you do this that none of your saved data will be available next time you open Chrome. \u00a0And, we think you&#8217;ll be better off not ticking the last two circles &#8211; &#8220;Block sites from setting any data&#8221; and &#8220;Block third-party cookies and site data&#8221;. If you tick either of those you&#8217;ll probably find you&#8217;ll have a lot of trouble with some of the sites you visit frequently. On the other hand, you can always check them to see what happens and if there&#8217;s a problem you can always return Chrome to its default setting &#8220;Allow local data to be set (recommended)&#8221; or you can set it to &#8220;Keep local data only until you quit your browser&#8221;. If your brave mess around with these settings and see what happens &#8211; you can&#8217;t ruin your computer or Chrome browser by dabbling with these settings. Anything you do can be reversed.<\/p>\n<p>The other options you see are pretty self-explanatory, even EB gets it \ud83d\ude42 You&#8217;ll be well-advised to allow JavaScript or you may find many of your favorite Web sites won&#8217;t work correctly.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/chrome-privacy1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"388\" height=\"541\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Below you&#8217;ll see more Content settings. Most of the settings below you&#8217;ll not want to fuss with, Wilbur!<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/chrome-privacy2.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"467\" height=\"583\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And let us not forget the all important &#8220;Done&#8221; button. If you make any changes to your Privacy\/Content Settings and you don&#8217;t click the &#8220;Done&#8221; button, you&#8217;ll not be done, you&#8217;ll be sorry because none of the changes you made will take effect and you&#8217;ll have to back and do it all over again. Google Chrome&#8217;s &#8220;Done&#8221; button means the same as Microsoft&#8217;s laborious (kind of) &#8220;Apply&#8221; \/ &#8220;OK&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone\" src=\"http:\/\/thundercloud.net\/infoave\/images\/2015\/chrome-privacy3.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"141\" height=\"117\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And now you know some more things about Chrome you probably didn&#8217;t know before. If you&#8217;re an IE fan, you&#8217;ll be happy to know that the next incarnation of IE called &#8220;Spartan&#8221; will be so much like Chrome you&#8217;ll wish you would have learned Chrome \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p>Smile!
