Google is reportedly working on a new shortcut for Chrome, which will provide users with a faster way to close tabs.
The new shortcut is expected to be a mouse input, which will allow users to close the active tab with a double-click action, reports Android Police.
Currently, pressing Ctrl+W on the keyboard closes the active tab in Chrome for Windows, and the standard way of doing this with a mouse includes clicking on the little cross icon beside the tab name.
However, with the new shortcut, users will be able to close tabs with a simple double-click action, the report said.
