Change the text in title-bar of chrome window from [xyz - Google Chrome] to [xyz - Something Else]
I'm using VirtuaWin and it lets you assign different desktops to different windows based on their title, and I want to assign 2 different chrome processes to 2 different desktops.
Is there a way (extension or a setting) to change the title of a particular window to change it from
[xyz - Google Chrome]
to
[xyz - Something Else]
?
Solution 1:
Update 2021
Chrome Canary (v91) now lets you change the full window title. You have to go to Customise and Control Google Chrome > More tools > Name window. A dialogue will open, where you can specify a custom name for the window.
This seems to be controlled by the #window-naming
flag, which is set to expire in v92.
Hopefully, this feature will come to Chrome Stable so that it can benefit the general public.
Original answer
A nice extension to change the title of a tab is to use Tab Title Tweaker (TTT). Right-click on the extension and select options to set some rules. For example, rename, https://www.google.com, Test
will make the title of Google's tab say "Test".
Google with a renamed tab
Solution 2:
Use JavaScript:
document.title='Your website title!';
This way you will change the title of the tab.
