How to Remove Personal Information from Google Chrome

Browsers play a prime role in connecting to various websites while you are using the internet. A variety of browsers are available for this purpose each having some distinctive features. Google Chrome is one of the popular browsers which is widely used for accessing web-based applications.

It allows users to login through their Google accounts and synchronize their data to be accessed from multiple devices. When accessing the multifarious websites Google offers its users to save their personal information i.e. user account, password, and other confidential information.

On one hand, it is feasible for a user to access these websites through a single click without the need of remembering passwords since the account information associated with the accessed websites is saved in the Google account of the Google Chrome browser. But on the other hand, the private information which is saved in the browser is vulnerable to be accessed and stolen through the internet.

For this reason, it is necessary to remove your personal information from Google Chrome or access the websites in incognito mode or activate some anti-hacking to avoid entering the malicious websites. This article describes the steps to remove the personal information from Google Chrome on Windows OS.
