Google Chrome offers an amazing feature of synchronization. It lets you sync all your open tabs, bookmarks, browsing history, saved passwords, extensions and apps as well as custom settings across several devices. It is a very useful feature and you don’t have to transfer your data to other computers.
Here are the steps to enable sync in Chrome:
1) The first step is to go to Settings. When you open the browser, you will see a gear like icon in the upper right corner of the page. Click on it and select Settings.
2) Now, click on Advanced Settings.
3) A new window will appear. Here, you can choose which settings you want to sync. You can also choose the option to Sync everything.
4) Click OK to save the changes.
Your changes to enable sync on Chrome will be reflected soon.
