I go to certain websites frequently. One day, when I typed "face" into my Chrome omnibox and hit enter (intending to go to Facebook), I must have done something differently, because it tried to go to "face" as an address (it didn't even search), and my DNS server told me it couldn't find "face." Ever after, "face" has been the first suggested URL by Chrome if I ever typed "f," "fa," "fac," or "face." This is very annoying.
How do I get rid of it?
On Linux:
Highlight the entry with your mouse or arrow keys and press shift + alt + delete.
On Mac OS X:
Highlight the entry with your mouse or arrow keys and press shift + fn + delete.
On Windows:
I think you highlight the entry and press shift + delete. I have not tested this.

I seem to be almost entirely mouse-free at this point, minus being able to access the Bookmarks bar in Chrome with a keyboard shortcut! I've searched the web quite a bit for an answer, but to no avail....any ideas or workaround?
EDIT: Use Firefox. You can CMD + B --> will open Bookmarks navigator, and you can type to search, hit TAB, and then arrow through results
If you are hoping to click on the actual bookmarks on your Google Chrome browser, using keyboard shortcuts, on Mac, you can make use of Mac's Keyboard shortcuts feature.
Open System settings app
Open Shortcuts section under Keyboard
Choose App shortcuts
Click +
Choose Google Chrome as application
On the title field, enter Bookmarks->{Bookmark-name-goes-here}
Set a hotkey
Save the changes and you can now use this hotkey to call that bookmark. This basically is setting a shortcut to your browser's menu item.
Holmes is an extension that allows a shortcut activated bookmark search similar to Garrett's answer but without the "read and change all the data on any websites that you visit" permission.
Install the tool then press shift+alt+H
⌘ + Option + b
or
⌘ + Shift + b
Try this shortcut
cmd+opt+B
I found a chrome plugin that is super useful and goes beyond what I was hoping for. It's called Bookmark Navigator. Here is the link https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/bookmark-navigator/bfibpphfhdpgkmbpkfmhdiklgcfmmkha
Below is a picture of what it looks like. The tool is summoned with cmd + b, and then you can start typing to search all of your bookmarks. You can press enter to access the bookmark at top of list, or use arrow keys to navigate further down the list.
This is the fastest and most user friendly option I have found.
Often then I code I press on methods to check them out. Obviously PhpStorm jumps to that method location. Is there a shortcut to jump back to where I was before pressing on a method? I don't want to scroll back to that certain part of code again.
Using Windows 10
Try this:
Ctrl + Alt + Left
Will take you to last location. If you use Right you can go the other way around.
I'm using a managed C720 Chromebook. Developer mode and most things of that nature are disabled. Web filtering is enabled from the "Chromium M" extension. When I restarted my device, the extension was automatically disabled because "This extension reloaded itself too frequently".
Is it possible for me to recreate the circumstances that lead to that happening?
Yes, you can, there is a way:
1) You can try and do developer mode, and keep spamming CTRL + D + Forward Button.
2) Login normally, but keep on spamming those buttons, then change to like a guest wifi, or a slow one then CTRL + SHFT + BACKSPACE, and delete your history, and that should be it, if it doesnt work the first time it should work the second time.
go to chrome://inspect/#extensions
click on inspect under the chromium m extension
go to the console tab
type close(window)
Right now I'm just using PhpStorm to work with some HTML, and it's great in that it auto indents and automatically closes out HTML tags.
The only problem is this feature doesn't really save me any time because I then have to use my mouse or arrow keys to navigate past the closing tag when I reach it. For example I type <p> and it closes it out <p></p> with my cursor in between, but when I'm done I either have to manually navigate past the closing bracket or use Shift+Enter to jump down to the next line (which isn't always what I want to do).
Is there a command that will just jump me to the end of the next closing bracket, or is there a way of setting this up? I've googled it but haven't been able to find anything.
I've googled it but haven't been able to find anything.
Well... Help | Default Keymap Reference has the most needed shortcuts and actions listed and the one you need is there.
In any case:
Ctrl + ] -- Navigate to code block end -- will jump to the closest closing tag (in HTML) or brace/closing keyword (CSS, PHP).
Ctrl + [ will do the opposite -- jump to the opening tag.
There are few other actions that can help here but may not have any shortcuts assigned by default -- check them in Settings (Preferences on Mac) | Appearance & Behaviour | Keymap (it has search by action name and even by already assigned shortcuts).
Another alternative (or better say -- advanced navigation) would be using AceJump pluign (you have to see it in action -- you either like or hate it).. or even Vim mode navigation (via IdeaVim plugin).
The simplest way to go about this is to press Command + -> (command+right arrow key) when your cursor is inside the brackets, and this will bring you behind the last bracket.
At least, I believe this is what you're asking.
hi, use mac os for: cmd + option + ]
I get addicted to use shortcut keys rather that mouse during development because that makes things done really fast.
When I Google somthing in Chrome, I always use CTRL + T, CTRL +W, CTRL + L, CTRL (+ SHIFT) + TAB etc., but that is not fast enough for me, and I do not want to stop to use mouse to click the searching result, that is too slows. So I wonder if there is any shortcut key to handle that? Any advice from you will be greatly appreciate.Thanks in advance!
I am using the vimium extension for chrome. Justhit "f" and each link in the page gets an overlay, which displays the corresponding shortcut key for the link.
