-\tDevTools - hidden settings for developers (chrome://inspect)
-\tDino Game – the scrolling game hidden in your Chrome browser (chrome://dino)
-\tDownloads – recently downloaded items (chrome://downloads)
-\tExtensions – manage your installed Chrome extensions (chrome://extensions)
-\tExperiments – access experimental Chrome features unreleased to the public (chrome://flags)
-\tHistory – your web browsing history (chrome://history)
-\tAbout Chrome – Chrome version numbers and issue reporting (chrome://chrome)
-\tSettings – settings including for browser experience (chrome://settings)
- Web Store – the Chrome web store for more apps and extensions (https://chrome.google.com/webstore)
