But that doesn&#8217;t exactly help when you&#8217;re performing a task that requires pop-ups. Luckily, that can be fixed. So, how do you allow pop-ups?&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Well, it&#8217;s relatively simple. Below you\u2019ll find a step-by-step guide for <\/span><b>how to allow pop-ups In Chrome<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b>How to Allow Pop-Ups In Chrome&nbsp;<\/b><\/h2>\n<p>Chrome pop-ups have several benefits to make your browsing a more satisfying experience. Here&#8217;s how you set it up.<\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 1: Download The Browser<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">&nbsp;You can use this link to download <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Chrome<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> onto your desktop or smartphone. After you&#8217;ve installed the app, an icon should appear on your main screen. Now, you&#8217;re just a few clicks away from a resolution. You&#8217;ll want to follow the instructions below to allow pop-ups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163912\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1614746859\/Chrome_article_oaw5o8.png\" width=\"925\" height=\"223\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 2: Open Chrome&nbsp;<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">You&#8217;ll have to launch your browser by clicking the tile (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.en.softonic.com\/iphone\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">iPhone<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.en.softonic.com\/android\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Android<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> users) or the icon (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.en.softonic.com\/mac\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Mac<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/chrome.en.softonic.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">PC<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">) on your main screen. The browser should launch after that.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163913\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1614746875\/Chrome_screen_shot_pete4l.png\" width=\"456\" height=\"119\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 3: More is Helpful<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">To the right of the address bar, you should see three bullet points. You&#8217;ll want to click on them to open the options menu. Then, you&#8217;ll scroll down to settings and select that option. Select Privacy and Security. You&#8217;ll find site settings close to the top of the list.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163914\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1614746877\/Chrome_Settings_qr4s5b.png\" width=\"1224\" height=\"581\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>Step 4: Enable Pop-Ups&nbsp;<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">After opening site settings, you should see a tab for Pop-ups and redirects. For mobile users, this step is as simple as sliding a toggle bar. After you&#8217;ve enabled pop-ups, you can always go back to site settings to disable them.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-163915\" src=\"https:\/\/articles-img.sftcdn.net\/image\/upload\/v1614746881\/Changing_Popups_xzowvw.png\" width=\"1216\" height=\"561\"><\/p>\n<h3><b>Popping up like daisies<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">As you can see, enabling pop-ups is a simple process. It can be helpful if you&#8217;re filling out applications or if you happen to use Chrome to sign in to your accounts automatically. Also, one feature that we haven&#8217;t discussed is the Google search engine. Have a question? Just type it into the search bar, and boom! Google has an answer.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Not only this, but the search results are consistently updated, so if you don&#8217;t find what you&#8217;re looking for, all you have to do is refine your search.
