Uninstall Google chrome built-in plugins

rated 0 times [ 1] [ 0] / answers: 1 / hits: 4328 / 2 Years ago, mon, december 6, 2021, 1:50:11

Is there a way to turn off permanently the plugins inside chrome? Especially, I am interested in the flash and video plugins. This causes a huge overload on my Internet , and it would be great if someone could suggest a way to uninstall or permanently turn-off these plugins.

Update:

I am specifically looking for a way to permanently disable the plugin with no way of resuscitation. I am dealing with hard data caps, so under no circumstance do I want any content to be played by others using the system. I know this sounds strange, but please help me out! Thank you in advance!

Open a chrome tab, enter "chrome://plugins" on the address bar, then enter

Find the "[+] Details" button in the upper right to show the details of each installed plugin and click this button.

You may disable the plugins as you. Also remember, by doing this will not harm in anyway since you're disabling but not be able to delete. Nevertheless, these are built-in plugins with chrome which associate with different websites & services as per the needs. Therefore, those websites or services may not display what you need to see (E.g.: if a web content needs flash plugin to access which will not work since disabled... etc). Disable it by acknowledging yourself as to what it will cause the web browsing.
