- Go to Google Chrome and open a new tab.
- Type chrome: // flags in the address bar and sign in.
- Type "Tab Groups" in the hidden menu browser.
- Locate the option you are looking for and select "Disable." Doing so will disable tab grouping.
- Go back to the browser and type "Tab Grid Layout."
- Locate the corresponding option and select "Disable." This will bring you back to the old cascading lash design.
- Restart Google Chrome by pressing the "Relaunch" button to apply the changes.
Sometimes you will have to do the process twice for it to take effect, but this is not always the case. And if you wonder why we disable two features, it is because one depends directly on the other. Grouping is tied to Chrome's new tab layout (it doesn't work with cascading layout), so you should disable both so it doesn't cause conflicts.
