To become more efficient, I wanted to use keyboard to point to and open any google search results on the first page. I couldn't find any such shortcut. I think using tab used to work but recently it has stopped working for me.

Given the following TS code to open a link to Google Maps:
const linkToMap = `https://google.com/maps/search/?api=1&query=${searchTerm}`;
window.open(linkToMap, '_blank');
When opening from a desktop or mobile browser, it works as expected. A new tab opens to Google Maps with a search for the query term. However, on Android devices, Google Maps will open and then do nothing. It will show whatever was open in the app when it was last used. It is behaving like it recognizes the maps link, but cannot handle the parameters. How can I fix this? Is there a specific way I need to structure the link? Is there a way to get logs for the app to see if its throwing an error?
I've tried using an older link scheme (https://www.google.com/maps?q=760+West+Genesee+Street+Syracuse+NY+13204) but got the same result.
I need to frequently translate the webpage manually for work purpose. Although not looking for auto-translate options, I need a keyboard shortcut or a handy extension to translate the page. The right click option on google or the google chrome translator extension need multiple clicks in order to translate. The middle mouse button to translate the whole web page would do some good to me.
I tried looking out for extensions out of which context menus was related to my issue. I couldn't figure out how it works.
The right click option on chrome has 7th option for translate page which is not handy. I need it to be the first option on right click or the middle mouse button to translate the google page would help.
I am working on windows and not MAC.
Say I opened a link from Google search results within the same tab. Now I want to keep my newly-opened website there and go back to my search results in a separate new tab. Intuitively it could be Ctrl+Backspace but apparently this isn't the case.
You can ctrl+ click the back arrow on the browser. But I don't think there's a purely keyboard combination like ctrl+backspace. At least not from my research.
The Search tab used to be found in tab next to the tabs Console, Emulation and Rendering, but it seems to have gone missing.
This search tab was really good for text searching that searched in any loaded resource.
We've moved the global Search to a place that we think will be more discoverable in the long run, the new main menu:
Sorry about the confusion!
I found this shortcut page that suggests using Ctrl+Shift+F (Win) or Cmd+Opt+F (Mac) after opening the Developer Tools to reveal the tab Text search across all sources.
A bit sad that it isn't shown from start when the Developer Tool are opened.
Alright so about every 30 seconds that I type searches into google's automatic search engine, google chrome downloads these "search.json" files. Why are they downloading and what can I do to prevent this from happening in the future?
This issue is caused by FastestChrome. The solution is to disable it ("Tools" >> "Extensions" >> "FastestChrome - Browse Faster" >> Uncheck "Enabled"). There seems to be a consensus on a Google forum topic that FastestChrome is causing the issue. I have confirmed myself.
Additionally, Mozilla Firefox users with FastestFox do experience the same issue. Disabling FastestFox should also resolve the problem.
The consensus is that FastestChrome causes this issue. Though you don't have to delete the entire app. The google product forums () suggest turning off these features in FastestChrome's options to get rid of the problem:
-Popup Bubble / Search Engines: uncheck google AND Google Maps.
-Uncheck the boxes under the Search Results tab
goto Google Preferences
check "Do not use Google Instant" in Google Instant section
then click save preference button at the right bottom corner.
