How to Restart Chromebook

Chrome OS is known as a lightweight system, but it has many desktop-class options. Just like other computer systems, you can click a Chromebook and make a video of the Chrome OS screen. So if you just started using a Chromebook and want to know how to restart it, this guide will show you how.

We have three easy ways to restart a Chromebook mentioned here, like the hidden Chrome URL method. So, let’s start with that in mind.

How to Restart Chromebook

Here we have mentioned 3 methods to restart a Chromebook. Let’s see:

Restart from Quick Settings

• Open Quick Settings at the bottom right.
• Click the power button on the left.
• Choose “Restart,” and your Chromebook will restart right away.

Restart Using the Power Button

• Hold the power button for a few seconds.
• A menu will pop up; choose “Shut down” to turn it off.
• Now to restart your Chromebook, press the power button.

Restart the Chromebook Using a Chrome webpage link

In the end, there are many Chrome links that most users do not know. One of them lets you restart your Chromebook with a basic website command. Remember, it is just a gentle restart and not a complete shutdown. Since there is not a special restart button here, you can use it this way on Chrome OS.

1. Start Chrome, put the below link in the top bar and press Enter. Check that you have saved all your work because this will quickly start your Chromebook again.

2. Now, Chrome will restart on its own. That’s all.

So this is how you can start the Chromebook again. It would have been good if Google added a start-over button. This would help to avoid the problems of needing to shut down and then turn on again manually. But you can use the Chrome URL to do a soft restart.

If you want to stop the Chromebook touchscreen, use our fast guide. To let Chromebook use split screen just like Windows 11, we have an easy guide for you. In the end, if you have any queries, tell us in the comments below.
