We’re used to running antivirus scans on our computers, but that doesn’t cover your online security.Google Chrome offers a tool that allows you to perform similar checks to secure your web browsing. This is how to run a security check on Chrome.
Open the Google Chrome web browser on your Windows 10, Mac, Chrome OS, or Linux computer and tap the three-dot menu button in the upper corner.
Head to “Settings” from the drop-down menu.
Scroll down to find the “Safety Check” option . click the “Check Now” option in blue.
Google Chrome will launch the “Safety Check” test.It can take you anywhere from a few seconds to a few minutes.
Make sure that the browser app is on the latest version to protect against the latest Internet viruses and that all of your installed third-party extensions are harmless.
When the safety check is complete, Chrome will pull down shortcuts for anything that might require your urgent attention, such as reviewing compromised credentials.
