How to delete chrome downloads on android
This will only remove the Chrome icon from your Apps list. You cannot entirely uninstall the browser since it's a stock app. On some Androids, you may automatically skip this step, and remove the app icon when you drop it on the Remove tab. Go into settings of your phone. Then, go to the Apps section and find Google Chrome. Once you find it, click on it and you should see one of the options.

I don't know what you mean by Chrome having a very discussing sentence on it but you can't delete Chrome because it's a system application. You can only delete its updates but that doesn't delete Chrome itself. Not Helpful 13 Helpful 5.
Restart the device and make sure your device is connected to the internet when attempting to uninstall Chrome. Not Helpful 31 Helpful 4. Jack Herrera. Not Helpful 16 Helpful 0. I have a Blu phone with Android 9. I constantly have to force stop Chrome and disable it.
After a short time, like a day, Chrome shows back up on my home screen. Anyone know how to stop this? Evan Leopard. If this is the case, you most likely own a device that was manufactured by Google. An easy way to tell is if you have Google Assistant. If it is made by Google, deleting Chrome might not be an option. Not Helpful 3 Helpful 2. How much memory is released for use by a uninstalling Chrome and b disabling it?
Chrome only uses uses RAM when it is running. Uninstalling it would require closing it first. Tap on the Menu icon in the top left corner and select Downloads to display only downloaded files. Here you may select the menu next to individual files to interact with them, e. Some Android devices come with a Downloads app. Design and layout of the app depends largely on the manufacturer of the device. The download app on my Xiaomi Mi4c device for instance separates files that are downloading from complete files.
You may pause or resume files that are in the download queue there for instance. There you may also clear the list of downloads which just removes the reference to the download but not the actual file which remains on the device. You may use the file manager of the device instead to access all files downloaded to it. Use it to open the downloads folder on the device which lists all downloaded files that have not been deleted yet. Some browsers handle downloads internally.
One question that should come up is why Google does not list downloads in the browser itself. It could be a combination of downloads not being overly popular on mobile devices and keeping Chrome as clean and tidy as possible interface wise. The download manager. And share after you select a file or more. Not even search, let alone pause download, etc. The way I discovered this was a bit infuriating as I had to redownload some files.. Also no select all button, I have to tap on each file, all of them if needed, to select then remove them.
Thank you so much buddy…. I forgot that I could control chrome downloads using my Default downloads app. Finally I could stop a large file from downloading on my mobile data. Anyways Thanks again!! Thank you! I came here from a Google search after wondering if I was somehow going blind and missing the downloads options.
There is no way to delete the list of downloads all at once, you have to delete each item one at a time. It takes forever. Save my name, email, and website in this browser for the next time I comment. Tap the Clear Cache button to take out the trash.
To select everything in the current folder, press Ctrl-A. To select a contiguous block of files, click the first file in the block. Then hold down the Shift key as you click the last file in the block. This will select not only those two files, but everything in between. Additionally, there is a record of it in your Internet browser. When a file is in the downloads folder, it can take up unnecessary storage space. The Downloads folder is the default download location for programs, images, and other files downloaded from online.
Then select your device and click the trashcan icon next to an app, and verify you want to uninstall it.
