A Quick Way to Make Gmail Open Automatically in Chrome on Startup
If you’re a frequent user of Gmail, you might prefer to start your day by checking your emails as soon as you open your browser. Luckily, there’s a straightforward way to make Gmail open automatically when you launch Google Chrome. In this guide, we’ll walk you through the steps to set up Gmail as your default startup page, ensuring that you never miss an important email again.
Step 1: Open Google Chrome Settings
The first step is to access the settings in Google Chrome. To do this, open your Chrome browser and click on the three vertical dots located at the top-right corner of the window. From the dropdown menu, select ‘Settings’. This will take you to a new page where you can customize various aspects of your browsing experience.
Step 2: Navigate to On Startup Settings
Once you’re in the Settings menu, look for the section titled ‘On startup’ on the left-hand sidebar. Click on it to reveal different options that control what happens when you start Chrome. You will see three options: ‘Open the New Tab page’, ‘Continue where you left off’, and ‘Open a specific page or set of pages’. Select ‘Open a specific page or set of pages’.
Step 3: Add Gmail as Your Startup Page
Now that you’ve selected the option to open specific pages, it’s time to add Gmail. Click on ‘Add a new page’. A dialog box will appear for you to enter URLs. Type “https://mail.google.com” into this box and then click ‘Add’. This action sets up Gmail as one of your startup pages.
Step 4: Remove Any Other Unwanted Pages (Optional)
If you’d like Gmail to be your sole startup page, consider removing any other pages that may have been added previously. Simply click on the three dots next to each unwanted URL listed under ‘Pages’ and select ‘Remove’. This way, every time you start Chrome, it will take you directly into your Gmail inbox.
Step 5: Test It Out.
Finally, close your browser completely and then reopen it. If everything was done correctly, Google Chrome should launch with Gmail displayed right away. This is an excellent way not only to enhance productivity but also ensure you’re always updated with new emails from the moment your browser opens.
By following these simple steps, you’ve successfully made Gmail open automatically in Google Chrome on startup. Now every time you need access to your email quickly—it’s just one browser launch away. Enjoy streamlined access and happy emailing.
