How to Remove “Ask Google About This Page” in Chrome

Google Chrome sometimes shows a new option called “Ask Google about this page” when you right-click on a webpage. This feature is powered by Google’s AI and is designed to let you get quick explanations about a page’s content. But not everyone finds it useful. Many users see it as clutter in the right-click menu or worry about extra data being sent to Google.

If you prefer a clean context menu, you can remove or disable this option. This guide will show you how.

Method 1: Turn Off the Feature from Chrome Settings

1. Open Google Chrome.
2. In the top-right corner, click the three-dot menu.
3. Select Settings.
4. In the left panel, click Search and Assistant (this option may appear only if the feature is enabled for your profile).
5. Find the setting for “Ask Google about this page” or “Google AI features”.
6. Toggle it off.

This will remove the option from the right-click menu.

Method 2: Use Chrome Flags (Experimental Settings)

Sometimes, Google rolls out features gradually. If you don’t see a direct toggle in settings, you can disable it through Chrome’s experimental flags.

1. In Chrome, type this in the address bar: chrome://flags
2. Press Enter.
3. In the search box, type “Ask Google about this page”.
4. If the flag appears, set it to Disabled.
5. Restart Chrome.

This will stop the option from appearing.

Method 3: Use a Clean Profile

If you still see the option, it might be tied to your synced profile. You can test with a fresh Chrome profile:

1. Click your profile picture in the top-right corner.
2. Select Add to create a new profile.
3. Open the new profile and right-click on a page.
4. If the option is gone, the feature was tied to your main profile.

You can choose to use the new profile or wait for Google to roll out a stable toggle for the feature.

Summary

The “Ask Google about this page” option is part of Chrome’s push to integrate AI into browsing. Some users may like it, but others may prefer a simpler experience. Using the methods above, you can remove it and keep your context menu uncluttered.
