Refresh without jumping to previous scroll/window location in Google Chrome

I'm trying to figure out how I can refresh a page without jumping to the previous scroll location in Google Chrome. When using Firefox this can be done by pressing Ctrl + F5 to refresh the page, cache and forget the scroll location. With Chrome I tried F5 and Shift + F5 like suggested on multiple places on the internet (to forget cache). However the scroll position is remembered when doing this.

Situation:

I'm working in a Confluence document and it would be nice if I can jump back to the selected location.

Example url: https://confluence.example.net/display/space/pagename#anchor

In this case, after scrolling around on the page I would like to jump back to #anchor.

My question is, how do I achieve this?


When closing the tab is an option then there is a workaround. I guess it’s an option because with a reload you would lose all entered text anyways and I can’t think of another reason why you wouldn’t want to close the tab. It’s just a problem if this is your last opened tab in this window as Chrome will close the window if the last tab is closed.

My workaround is always to close the tab and reopen it. So Ctrl+L, Ctrl+C, Ctrl+W, Ctrl+T and finally Ctrl+V and Enter.

Interestingly, there’s this Chromium bug and the pasted URL there works (click on link, scroll a bit and do a normal reload with F5 and you get back to #Tours). However, I just tested it with Wikipedia and it doesn’t work there.
