Once we have chosen the proposal with these characteristics that we are going to use on our computer, it is important to configure it properly. For this, these programs normally offer us a page of setup quite accessible and easy to use. All we have to do is take a look at the different options available to configure and customize the web browser to our needs. But keep in mind that we use these programs constantly and for multiple tasks.
In fact, its use does not stop growing in parallel to how we use the Internet on most occasions. We no longer just focus on visit web pages, but we access all kinds of online platforms, use applications, work and even play. All of this not to mention online music and video streaming services. Hence the functionality of these browsers that we are telling you every time must be bigger and more advanced. Next, we are going to talk about a series of hidden configuration panels that will surely be very useful for you.
Hidden Chrome and Edge panels
If we focus on the most widely used proposal for these features globally, Google’s Chrome, we will see that it has some panels that we may not have known about. For example, we can access a page that offers us dozens of urls to activate or deactivate the functions of the program. We only have to type the following in the address bar:
chrome://chrome-urls/
Among the many pages available, from here we can access the functions that are currently being tested and are therefore experimental. When trying to access this configuration page, they already warn us that some of these tools could fail at this moment. But we have much more to choose from.
First of all, we must keep in mind that the Edge browser we find right now in Windows systems, it could be considered as the second generation of it. This is based on the same rendering engine as Google Chrome, we mean Chromium. Therefore the Microsoft browser program it shares many functions and features with the search giant’s proposal.
Likewise, we can also access the hidden page that gives us the opportunity to open a multitude of configurations from what we write in the bar:

The same thing happens in the third party, that is, Mozilla’s Firefox project to move around the Internet. It should be mentioned that in this case it is equally easy to know all the hidden program configuration and customization pages. And it is that from the outset we already find one of them that gives us direct access to all the hidden options that we are discussing in these lines. Just type the following in the Firefox address bar:

From here we find ourselves as a series of shortcuts in the form of addresses to enter directly into the Firefox plugins page, in the processes or certificates page. We recommend you take a look at all the proposals that appear here to be able to see first-hand the configurations that we can use and customize of this program that we use daily.
