Chrome App Launcher on Windows is being removed!
Someone tell me this is an April Fool's joke!
The app launcher makes Chrome apps easy to open outside the browser, but we’ve found that users on Windows, Mac, and Linux prefer to launch their apps from within Chrome. With Chrome’s continued emphasis on simplicity and streamlining browser features, the launcher will be removed from those platforms. It will remain unchanged on Chrome OS.
The removal process will take place over the next several months. Beginning in a few weeks, Chrome will no longer enable the launcher when users first install a Chrome app. Anyone who currently has the launcher will receive a notice informing them that the launcher will be going away. In July, existing instances of the launcher will be removed. - Google

Craig Long the notice says it is being removed in July. That is why we are upset. We know it is still there now, sir.
ReplyDeleteHeather Kraafter So maybe I read it wrong? I thought they were keeping the one in the browser but removing the one outside the browser but I don't really know. I thought there was one outside the browser but maybe not.
ReplyDeleteCraig Long oh that may be. I didn't realize it was a separate item. Man alive, get us all riled up - eh? lol
