Google Old Results Extension

The purpose of this extension is to show Google results in the way they used to before around January 2020, when the results page added a cached page dropdown and a favicon to the results page and moved the URL to above the title.

You can see the before and after in the screenshots.

It does two things:
-Hides the favicon and the dropdown to get you to the cached page.
-Adjust styles to replace new user interface with one that is similar to the classic google results before Jan 2020.

MurderChickenXL (ID: 00000017e3a54859) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 09/04/2023 Wish that it worked. Just starting TODAY Googe search only shows "Videos Images Reddit News shopping Maps Books Flights Finance" What's missing is "All". Maybe this extension was worth 5 stars but now it's unable to deal with Google. Not your fault. Every Chromium browser has this problem now, including the modern Firefox. My Firefox 52.9 version gets around it somehow though and I wish I knew why. I wish you luck, Patricia!
