Synchronize “purple links”

I'd like to synchronize the highlighting of all the links that I've clicked across all Google Chrome installations. Is it possible to do this?

  • It's not working right now, and all of my Chrome extensions have stopped working across all of my computers for some unknown reason.

I can't confirm at this time, but try setting up google sync in the settings. This should keep your history in sync between your Chrome installations, and the links are colored (made purple) based upon your history.

  • I've set up sync, and it still doesn't appear to be working - why is this?

  • @AndersonGreen I can't explicitly say; Double-check that you're still signed into sync on both computers. I've been using it for the past few months and it's been working well.
