Browser Problem

Ordinarily, in my browser (Chrome, I think, but I can't tell now) there is a strip at the bottom of the screen showing some easy-launch software, the time of day in the right corner, etc. Also, ordinarily, there are some strips at the top showing the browser windows I have open and some other stuff like the menu categories we are so used to ("File," etc.). All that stuff is gone now. I have a "full screen" view with ZERO strips at the top or bottom. If I move the cursor to the top of the screen, a small amount of information and options appear.

How can I restore my browser so that these various menu strips (which I depend on) reappear?

I did a search and in the Chrome website this shows up. I haven't used this software in a few years as it seemed like it was a program made and managed by a bunch of high school kids?!

The feature 'Create application shortcut...' is still there.
1. at address bar, go to [ chrome://flags ];
2. find 'Enable the new bookmark app system' using CTRL + F ;
For other languages, check Axel Moor's August 24th answer: Danske (Danish), Español (Spanish), Français (French), Português-PT/BR (Portuguese-PT/BR);
3. change the flag status at drop-down menu from 'Default' (or 'Enabled') to [ Disabled v ];
4. click the [ RELAUNCH NOW ] button at the bottom, Chrome will restart;
5. check the 'More tools >' once again, the 'Create application shortcut...' item is restored;


Check Axel Moor's August 24th answer for easy step-by-step images of this solution, and more information on Command Line Switches options, Google reasons for this update, Types of Shortcuts to web pages such as Webpage shortcut (drag-and-drop an web address), Program shortcut with Start Page or Web App shortcut created by "Create application shortcut" that is the subject of this discussion.

That is not Chrome. That is Windows.
