How to Enable or Disable QR Code Generator in Google Chrome


Starting with the latest Google Chrome Developer version, you can enable the Enable sharing page via QR Code experimental flag that enables right-click UI to share the page's URL via a generated QR Code.

You can download the QR Code and/or scan the QR code with your smartphone to share the page's URL.

This tutorial will show you how to enable or disable the ability to generate a QR Code for the URL of an open page in Google Chrome.

To scan the QR code, you can use a QR scanner app on your phone, or some camera apps.
